Hey i’m looking for someone to sew a personally designed jacket.fashion illustrations will be done soon. i will need it to be at a high end grade. i’ll have fabric, patterns and sewing essentials ready so it’s more assembling the garment. it will need inner lining, hardware and other components that could be a little complicated. i’m happy sewing on the hardware myself as long as it can be done in the sewing order. i’m looking for someone interested in a bit more of a collaborative process so it all runs smoothly and turns out how i’m imagining! it’s for a small art/clothing label under a one of one piece type of thing so the budget isn’t crazy so i want to make the process as easy as possible for anyone interested! also because of the budget i could have the fabric cut out and ready + labeled in order to make construction fast and easy process!

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

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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
