Mayfair, Greater London, W1J
8th May 2025
I need someone to sew and assemble a pair of jeans for me. I have the patterns, fabric, thread, and everything I just need someone to assemble them for me. They are very simple and standard pair of jeans, I don’t need a flat felled machine or anything, a standard top stitch sewing machine will work. I’m not using any rivets so bartacking or stitch reinforcing will suffice.
