Sew back together torn onesie

$25

Shellharbour NSW, Australia

14th Dec 2025

My dog thought it'd be fun to misbehave under the awful influence of my friends dog, and she got a hold of my sons favourite onesie. I'm hoping someone that knows how to use a sewing machine can put it back together. I'd do it by hand, but that's quite time-consuming and time is something I don't have much of atm due to packing/organising to travel Aus in about a week. Any smaller holes left after the major part is done, I will hand-sew myself. :) Thank you in advance

Hello! I need someone to sew some much nicer fabric onto my existing (blackout) campervan curtains - adding new fabric to both sides if possible?

Sewing experience to make a garment

$300

Newport NSW, Australia

9th Dec 2025

LOOKING TO HIRE ANYONE WITH SEWING EXPERIENCE FOR A PROJECT (working from home). Hi my name is Lucy! I am a fashion designer and I am currently looking for a seamstress to work with short or long term to create a few designs, for a small collection for a start up women's clothing brand. Types of clothes would include co-ord sets of pants and women's tops and dresses (experience with sewing corsets / tailoring would be a bonus). My designs can be a bit more complex as i enjoy editorial looks and structured silhouettes which would be reflected in the payment. The materials and features i like to work with is stretch fabric as well as non stretch, lace and cotton blends. Technical sketches, spec sheets, patterns and possibly even samples can be provided. Thanks

Seeking someone to sew bear clothes from my late grandma’s clothing

$60

Lugarno NSW 2210, Australia

25th Nov 2025

Hi everyone, My grandma recently passed away, and I’m hoping to make some special Christmas gifts for my mum and a few other relatives. I’m planning to create Build-A-Bear toys with her voice recorded inside, and I would love to dress them in outfits made from her clothing. Is there anyone who would be able to sew a bear-sized shirt using one of her tops, and a pair of bear-sized shorts using one of her shorts? I’m happy to provide the materials and pay for your time. Thank you so much. 💛

Pam was quick and they turned out great

Skilled sewer to make a cover for a dog bed

$150

Marrickville, New South Wales

1st Nov 2025

I have a rectangular foam dog bed (approx 30cm x 70cm), and I would like a new cover on it. -> the bed in the pic currently with a blue cover. I have an existing cover (for a different , but similarly sized dog bed) that I would like to use for this task (as the fabric very good quality / strong). -> the brown cover in the pic. The existing cover needs to be remade to fit the bed. There is enough material but it needs to be cut up/ sewn bag together so it fits the other bed. I understand there may be so additional seams due to the currently structure of the cover as the existing bed bolsters around the sides. There is a zip on the bottom side which goes around 2 sides so the cover can be washed. This will also need to be re-used in the new cover so it can be taken off and washed. The tasker will need to come and collect the cover and the foam insert (bed) from my house, and drop it back once complete. We can discuss more in person then :)

Working with Marla was an absolute dream! I took a chance with her as it was her first task and it absolutely paid off. I think this is one of the best experiences on Airtasker. She was friendly, punctual, amazing attention to detail and most of all, did a PERFECT job on making my dog bed. I would highly recommend her for your sewing needs. Thank you again Marla, it’s been so wonderful working with you

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 😊

Heavy metal battle vest, patches sewn on and strengthen

$200

Turramurra NSW, Australia

15th Oct 2025

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
