Sara - A Tailor Extraordinaire! Highly recommend Sara! She fixed my pants incredibly quickly and with meticulous attention to detail. The final result was flawless, and it felt like she truly cared about getting it right. But beyond the expert tailoring, Sara was also incredibly friendly and helpful. She made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ all around!

I’m looking for an experienced sewing machine technician nearby to repair and fully service my Singer 306K. It was working well, but it suddenly stopped sewing this morning, so I would like it to be thoroughly checked.

I’m a student, so I’m hoping for a reasonable, student-friendly price. Thank you!

Dress Altering Required (seeking a Seamstress )

$50

Brunswick VIC 3056, Australia

16th Sep 2026

Seeking a Sewer / Seamstress to alter a dress I’d like to wear for a wedding in January. I had it measured at a tailor and they suggested 6cm total width add in 3 cm either side of the zip in a v shape ( see image). Unsure of how far down it needs to be altered to however, see image for rough alteration. Will need to be re-measured. The Tailor suggested the zip be unpicked and resewn in with two v shape panels either side in order for the dress to fit. I’ll provide the fabric.

Seamstress for copying some traditional Greek dresses

$200

Bulleen VIC 3105, Australia

16th Apr 2026

Hi there, I’m looking for an experienced seamstress or dressmaker to replicate a traditional Greek dress. I have an original garment available to use as a reference/template. The dress is a long, pleated style with an inner lining, so experience with pleating and structured garments is highly preferred. This project is for a not-for-profit cultural dance group, so we are mindful of cost. We’re looking to start with one piece as a test run, ideally completed as soon as possible. If the quality and pricing are right, we would then proceed with a series of dresses in various sizes to be completed by early June. Details: Strong attention to detail required Ability to closely match the original design and fit Open to discussing whether you or we source the fabrics Please reach out with examples of previous work and an indication of pricing. Thanks in advance!

Asa was very easy to work with, easy to communicate and organise a time to meet and completed the dress required well ahead of time. Definitely recommended. Thank you
