Need someone skilled in sewing.

$50

Coogee NSW 2034, Australia

19th Aug 2026

I’m urgently looking for or someone skilled in sewing to help saw 4 panels to existing cotton bodice and add boning. No need for hemming at this stage. Just saw straight stitching and add boning which I will provide. The panels have already been created for the boning. This is urgent, so I’m looking for someone who can help me do this by today. You would need your own sewing machine. I’m located in the Eastern Suburbs and need someone close by. Work must be finished today. I only think it will take at most 15 mins at most. It’s pretty basic sewing.

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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
