Looking for Help – Dance Costume Motifs Sewing Hi, I’m looking for someone experienced in hand sewing to attach motifs x5 onto my daughter’s new dance costume (3x on the top, 2x on the skirt) They are pinned into position just need to be hand sewn.

Ongoing clothing alterations and sewing

Preston VIC 3072, Australia
24th Feb 2025
Im looking for somebody to do a bunch of clothes alterations. I get most clothes altered so I could give the right person ongoing work! I like to add features to my clothes. And I hand sew. But I sometimes need somebody to machine sew parts of my garments. So I’m looking for someone who is creative and will enjoy helping me add flourishes to my clothes. I always need alterations, so I’d love to find a creative soul who can sew that I would give ongoing work to.
I cannot rave or recommend Theresia enough! She is exceptionally skilled at what she does. Exceeded all my expectations! She is reliable, great work ethic, so friendly and accomodating. She is worth every Penny! Such great value. Do not hesitate to hire her! I will be giving her a lot of work on an ongoing basis. I’m delighted to have found her. She is just exceptional.
