Help sew a linen bed head cover

$120

Byron Bay NSW, Australia

14th Oct 2025

I have a white linen slip to go over my bed head however it does not fit as is and needs to be cut and stitched with your own sewing machine on site to add the addition panel. There is extra fabric length so it should be fine to repurpose and use along the gap. Possibly add white lining underneath to help it not be as sheer for additional negotiated rate and I will cover the cost of material

I'm currently in sampling process with a manufacturer overseas for a dress for my brand. I've found the sampling process a bit hit or miss and would like to streamline by creating a prototype here in Sydney to ship off to my manufacturer to replicate. Would this be something we can arrange? I'd be making a variety of womens clothing such as dresses, skirts, tops etc (one at a time). Price is negotiable Looking forward to hearing from you!

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

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.
