Sewing and alterations on female clothing

$100

Seven Hills NSW, Australia

14th Mar 2024

I have a number of items that need some basic sewing work, as follows: - reattach a spagetti strap on one dress that broke - reattach the waste tie on a jumpsuit that broke - restitch the hem on a dress that came undone - restitch the seam on a blazer arm sleeve that came undone - stitch on clasps/buttons onto 3 dresses so they are less gaping at the cleavage All in all there are 7 pieces of clothing but all of the works are quite minor. There is no cutting of fabrics required, just stitching. Where there are items that I am asking for clasps to be added, I have purchased and will provide the clasps.

Seamstress for Van Curtains

$25

Cronulla NSW, Australia

15th Feb 2024

I have a Hiace van, need privacy curtains for the caddy (with eyelets as there is a curtain track in this section) and for the back window (top & bottom hem as there are two wires on the back window). I need them to pull apart from the middle - so two curtains each. I have the material and measurements for the window and caddy section. I truly know nothing about sewing so need someone who understands how many extra cms they will need to make the curtains pull apart and to hem from top and bottom in both instances. Thank you! I'm pretty easy, don't need perfection just want them functional

Absolutely amazing having Lesley create my curtains. They were understanding, and went above & beyond to get everything looking great. Thanks
