Sew custom covers for outdoor lounge

$400

Banksia NSW, Australia

13th Nov 2025

I have an existing outdoor lounge that I would like new covers made for. I will supply the fabric and the existing foam for the cushions - will be a white Sunbrella Outdoor Fabric. See image below of the lounge - it is a two seater and comprises of one seat cushion and two rear back cushions. Approx dimensions are: 1310mm x 650mm x 775mm Covers will need zips so the covers can be removed for washing. A nice to have would be to add piping in a seperate colour - this can be discussed. Covers are ready to go now and hoping to have this completed prior to Christmas. Thanks.

Sew covers for these cushions.

$100

Fletcher NSW, Australia

29th Oct 2025

I would like someone to sew new covers for these cushions. I have the material and the longest cover is 140cm x 50cm. I can take the green ones off for you to use as a guide. Zippers aren’t necessary and the workmanship doesn’t have to be amazing - just the front facing parts need to look tidy and they need to sit flush with each other.

Amazing craftsmanship. Quick and outstanding service. Highly recommend 😊

I stripped my heavy metal battle vest of its patches and would like someone skilled in sewing to patch them on, when I stripped them there are little holes from previous patches so would like it strengthened so it can survive the mosh and it wont tear or have patches come off Would also like the edges of the arm holes frayed aswell as a flannel lining or red bandanna lining preferably inside the jacket, also want all the pockets functional including the ones on the inside aswell as a secret deep pocket on the inside of the vest Have shown where I would like the patches to go but am not fussed on the placement of them just certain would prefer to go in the front and the other few on the back I have provided two pictures of what I am eventually building the vest upto

Custom dress making with existing dress (major alterations)

$5

Sydney, New South Wales

16th Sep 2025

I have a dress that I absolutely love the entire back, and the colour, but the front of the top part is not very flattering for me. I tried to take it to my usual alterations lady but she said (and I agree) this job is going more into custom dress-making territory. As such I am looking for a Sydney-based dress-maker / seamstress who would like to take on this challenge. I have some ideas but am not fixed on what I’d like the front to look like, I am really happy to be flexible and guided by your experience. I need the dress to be hemmed while we are at it, so that also gives us some extra fabric to work with. Budget for consultation Many thanks

Jiya is exactly what I needed… someone show will take on the challenge that other tailors said would be too hard. Thank you Jiya xx

Upholsterer or seamstress to sew 3 cushion covers for a bench seat

$200

Bexley North NSW, Australia

2nd Jul 2025

Hi guys, I have 3 cushions approx 450 x 885 and 125mm thick. I have the material and need someone to professionally create cushion covers for these. I would like the tops to be wrapped with polyester lining to smooth out the curves. No zipper necessary. I have 3 cushions and material only. Need you to purchase polyester lining if possible. I can drop off and pick up to your location. I would ideally like them turned over fairly quickly say the next week or two if possible. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Lovely person and completed the cushion sewing task soo quickly and to perfection.
