Clothing repair 

Sewists offer clothing repair services. They can fix a broken zip or sew on a button. No task is too small! Clothing repair also includes mending holes and stitching up linings. Discovered a rip on your dress, and your party is a few hours away? Put up a task and find nearby sewing services in minutes. 

Once you’ve accepted an offer, your Tasker can come by and deal with your clothing emergency. If you’re in no rush, go ahead and have a sewer fix up or restyle an old garment you love. You could even hire a Tasker to dry-clean a dusty coat or iron your clothes. 

Clothing alteration 

Sewers can alter clothes in many ways, such as adjusting the length of trousers or tightening a skirt around the waist. Sewing experts can also add features to a garment, whether it’s adding nifty pockets to a dress or sewing patches onto sleeves. 

Clothing alteration is a great way to customise or update a garment to a wearer’s preference. Find sewing alteration services near you today by putting up a task and telling us what you need to be done.  

Upholstery and drapery sewing

Aside from clothing, sewing experts can work on upholstery, linens, and other items. Upholstery sewing includes sewing couch cushions and repairing zips on seat covers.

I need 3 sets of linen curtains made for my lounge room at home. One is a large wall of floor to ceiling windows (2 curtains) and the other a single large window (1 curtain).

There are 3 windows within this section. 2 curtains for this section - Large single window - 1810mm (width) x 2500mm (height) Would love someone to come to my house to remeasure + discuss final details and pick up all materials. If additional materials are required I am happy to source these. Need the curtains done by early December or 17th December at the latest.

I am very pleased with the linen curtains Cameron made for me - the end result exceeded my expectations and the curtains are beautiful. There were delays due to some health issues on Cameron's side (as happens in life). Communication was sometimes a little up and down. I was interstate for a long of that period which didn't help. Cameron is a lovely man to deal with.
