Sewing - Clothing Repairs

$100

Tingalpa QLD, Australia

24th Oct 2022

I have two clothing repair jobs... 1. Replace the elastic straps in the back of the vest. It actually doesn't need to be elastic. It could be just material but I do want the little button loop ends put back on. 2. Replace the lining in this vintage woollen sequined top. There are a few small holes in it that would also be great to mend but not 100% necessary. Price is definitely negotiable and would pay for materials or provide materials upon advice. Would prefer someone Brisbane south-east (I'm in Tingalpa) and would drop off and collect to you. - Due date: Flexible

Angela was fantastic and the work she did was 5 star especially in giving a second life to my vintage top.
