I need 2 sets of couch covers for my outdoor balcony swing. Different designs for the textile please for the 2 different sets. I would like them to be of neutral colours please. One cream/light brownish (similar to the colour in the first photo which is the actual cushion that needs covers not the second photo) in design and the other green and white (similar to the couch covers in the second photo) if possible. Also if you could add large zippers so it would be easy to put in the wash. If you want me to go with you to buy the materials/fabrics I can do too. Thank you.

Looking for a seamstress/costume maker to recreate 3 vampire costumes

$1,000

Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

27th Aug 2026

Hi! I’m looking for an experienced seamstress, dressmaker or costume designer who can recreate three custom costumes for myself and two friends, based on the reference photos attached. We’re wanting the ethereal/gothic vampire look from the references, with each girl having a slightly different costume: • ivory/gold two-piece with draped sheer fabric • white/cream flowing gown with corset-style detailing • blush pink/cream flowing gown with gold embellishments They don’t need to be exact screen-accurate replicas, but we’d love them to be as close to the references as reasonably possible, particularly the silhouettes, sheer/draped fabrics, gold detailing and overall romantic gothic look. We’re happy to discuss fabrics and ways to recreate the detailing without making the costumes unnecessarily expensive. They only need to photograph beautifully and have the same overall effect as the originals. We can provide individual measurements for all three girls and attend fittings in Sydney if required. Looking for someone who can assist with: • pattern making/adapting existing patterns • fabric sourcing or advising us what to purchase • sewing and construction • gold trims/embellishments • fitting and alterations Please send through examples of previous costume, bridal, formalwear or similar work if possible. Budget: Open to quotes. Please let me know your estimated cost for all three costumes, or your price per costume. I’ve attached multiple reference images showing the costumes from different angles. Thank you! ♡

Seamstress/tailor/dress maker

$40

Marrickville, New South Wales

13th Aug 2026

Hi! I am a vintage/up-cycle start up business that is in search of a tailor that has the ability to follow pattern pieces. I currently have an influx of old and new stuff that I would like to rework into new items and designs. I have a sewing machine however don’t have the hours to commit. Per item made. I will pay the maker per piece depending on complexity. To give example the first pieces I would like to create a dress from large shirts that I have on hand. I have purchased a pattern piece for this desired look and would be in search of someone who can articulate my design into a finished rework/upcycled piece. I would like to create a first range of around 10pieces to begin. So if you feel like you have the ability to meet the criteria then reach out to me and we can talk! The first few pieces will be quite simple in design. Thanks! -Talei

She is so talented! Thank you 🙏

5 patches to be removed from old PU jacket and sewed in to the new PU bomber jacket. Can also drop off and pick up at your place so it's easier for you depending on your location :)

Claire did an amazing job putting the embroidered patches on my PU jacket. She finished everything within a day and the quality was great. She was also really sweet and easy to deal with throughout the whole process. I really appreciated that she drove all the way to pick up and drop off my jacket as well. Highly recommend her if you need someone reliable and thoughtful. ☺️

Need my sewing machine threaded

$30

West Wollongong NSW, Australia

11th May 2026

My eyesight is not the best, even with glasses and a magnifying glass and I struggle to thread the cotton through the eyehole of the needle on the machine. I get mose upset with myself because I cant see what Im doing. Would someone with much much better eyesight be able to come and thread it for me? I have a Brother Sewing Machine and for the life I dont know what model it is, but the Operation Manual book that I have is for the Product Code: 888-V14 Someone with sewing experience please and has been sewing for a long time and also knows Brother sewing machines.

Lovely to deal with and exactly what I needed. I struggle with my eyesight and threading a sewing machine needle is just beyond me — she sorted it quickly and was an absolute pleasure. 100% recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
