Custom sewing – Children’s bed canopy

$250

Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

30th Oct 2026

I’m looking for an experienced seamstress, dressmaker or someone specialising in custom soft furnishings to create a beautiful, handmade children’s canopy for my daughter’s bedroom. I have a detailed inspiration image showing exactly what I’m hoping to achieve please see image. The design is a traditional ceiling-hung canopy with a pointed/conical top, a circular hoop and beautiful, soft, flowing fabric underneath. The main features I’m after are: * Colour: Soft, muted dusty teal blue. * Fabric: High-quality, lightweight cotton or linen with a beautiful, natural drape. * Shape: Traditional conical canopy with a ceiling hanging loop. * Hoop diameter: Approximately 50–55 cm. * Decorative band: A smooth, structured fabric band approximately 12–15 cm wide, positioned around the circumference where the pointed top meets the flowing fabric. * Gathering: Soft, evenly gathered fabric above and below the band, creating a full, elegant drape. The most important detail is the structured band. I’d love it to have a neat, professional finish that holds its shape beautifully, while the surrounding fabric remains soft and flowing. I’m planning to hand-embroider decorative seashells onto the band myself so I DO NOT expect you to do this, no embroidery or embellishments are required. My image I provided you is just showing you what I intend to do and what the end result will look like but it’s important for you to know what I want to do to it so perhaps it may change things from your end on how you construct the band. I’m happy to discuss fabric sourcing and whether materials should be supplied by me or include them in your quote. Ideally, I’m looking for someone in Sydney who has experience with custom sewing projects and can help bring this design to life. Please let me know if this is something you could make, your experience with similar projects and an approximate quote. Thank you so much! 😊

Sewing darts in trousers

$50

Manly NSW 2095, Australia

29th Oct 2026

I have two small sewing jobs - sew two darts in a pair of pants: bought on Depop and they’re too wide around the waist - I’ve pinned the waist in, just need someone with a sewing machine to sew them. Lightweight synthetic fabric. - cut and hem a linen throw blanket. My dog chewed a hole in a QS blanket- I’d like you to cut a straight line to make it smaller, and hem the cut. Fabric is a heavy linen, dark grey colour (link below - it’s not as heavy as denim but heavier than regular sheets). https://bedthreads.com.au/products/charcoal-heavy-linen-bed-cover

Sew my hat 🧵

$70

Lennox Head NSW 2478, Australia

17th Oct 2026

Unfortunately my dog has got ahold of my Akubra and chewed/ripped the inner leather band out along with this outside crown band. I’m wanting someone to try their best sewing it back in/on to fix it. I know it’s not going to be perfect again and I’m Completely fine with that. The Inner band has a rip in it but I reckon it can be sewed back in. The outer band is pretty simple, just needs a couple threads to hold it on. Additional Info can be provided

Helped me fix my hat with her sewing skills. Did an awesome job and also quick.

Need a button sewn into jeans and another pair taken up.

$10

Erina NSW, Australia

5th Jun 2026

Hi, i have 2 pairs of motorcycle jeans. 1 needs a button put on it. The other pair is a ladies pair which needs to be taken up a little. Located in Erina. Have put ten but offer your best price for this job :) If you can pick them up and bring them back, there is no rush on this job very flexible. Posted a photo of the button that is missing.

Mother did the job for her and all I got was excuse after excuse. The work wasn't great either. Ill go to another seamstress to have it done properly. Complete waste of money.

Need my sewing machine threaded

$30

West Wollongong NSW, Australia

11th May 2026

My eyesight is not the best, even with glasses and a magnifying glass and I struggle to thread the cotton through the eyehole of the needle on the machine. I get mose upset with myself because I cant see what Im doing. Would someone with much much better eyesight be able to come and thread it for me? I have a Brother Sewing Machine and for the life I dont know what model it is, but the Operation Manual book that I have is for the Product Code: 888-V14 Someone with sewing experience please and has been sewing for a long time and also knows Brother sewing machines.

Lovely to deal with and exactly what I needed. I struggle with my eyesight and threading a sewing machine needle is just beyond me — she sorted it quickly and was an absolute pleasure. 100% recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
