Sewing together garments for my final collection at university.

£35

Manchester, Greater Manchester

11th Dec 2023

The collection has a lot of denim, zip pockets, pleating etc. designs will change over the next month but I will need help from Mid January till March time, not continuous, just as and when I need help. I will give you several days ahead of time for when I need them done and I will supply pre-cut fabric pattern pieces, zips, buttons etc. with designs and flats to help guide the sewing. I am a uni student so can only pay around £30-40 per garment (depending on size and difficulty). However, for younger people this is a great opportunity to practice your skills. for adults it could be a fun side hobby! If fabrics I supply you with are ripped or stained or damaged during the process I will have to deduct the amount it costs to replace it from how much I can pay you. - Due date: Before Saturday, 30 March 2024
