Hi there! I’m looking for someone local who can help me repair two linen sheets using a sewing machine. They need some mending, nothing too complicated if you know about sewing, just a bit of stitching to bring them back to life. If you’re experienced with sewing (especially with linen fabric) and have a machine, I’d love to hear from you! Happy to drop them off or meet somewhere convenient

Hi, I’ve been gifted my great grandmothers singer sewing machine from the 60-70s . My mother knows how to sew but we love to far away from each other, I need someone to help me in person. I’m a fast learner and patient. I need to learn more about the machine, and other basics. I’ve done sewing back in high school so I know a little. Price is low, as I’m uni student but I’m happy to negotiate

Very lovely and helpful

Garment alterations and sewing assistance

$175

East Melbourne VIC, Australia

15th Jan 2025

I would like an experienced seamstress/sewist to help me alter, repair and sew some garments, and help me learn more about dressmaking. Starting with a 3 hour session, with the potential for ongoing work. Ideally, you will: - be friendly and patient and a clear teacher with actionable advice - be able to bring your own sewing machine. I have one, but its very old, and I'd prefer if we could work simultaneously.* - have experience making dance costumes and gowns - understand fabrics and have experience sewing with challenging materials - be able to give advice on choosing fabrics - understand how to adjust and create garments for mid-size, curvy, petite women. - be happy to work in a house with a cat. The budget I am setting includes $50 per hour for 3 hours, plus $25 for bringing a sewing machine and any basic equipment. If you are not able to bring these tools, please reflect that in your offer. *Note: I have needles, thread, scissors, bobbins, measuring tape, some patterns and practice fabrics and some other basics, but no chalk. If you want to bring anything along that would help it would be much appreciated!

Meha was wonderful! Very reliable, knowledgeable and friendly!
