Taskers can sew any item for you, be it clothing, accessories, or upholstery. Sewing experts can make, repair, or alter fabric pieces, such as shirts, dresses, curtains, and seat covers. They can also add embellishments like embroidery onto clothes and other fabrics.
Taskers can help you with one-off sewing tasks or long-term sewing work. So whether you simply need a button sewn onto a blouse or a couple of mittens made for your business, Taskers can help! As long as a Tasker is available, you can get small or big tasks done.
You can either supply the sewing materials or have a sewing expert provide everything for the service. Tell us about your task, and we’ll connect you with sewers who’ll help ensure you get the perfect fabric or right color of thread for your sewing task.
Sewing services may take anywhere from an hour to a couple of days. Lead times depend on Tasker availability and skill, as well as the nature of the task.

Yes. Dressmakers and seamstresses have overlapping skills, but they differ in certain skill sets. In general, dressmakers specialize in making dresses. What’s more, dressmakers tend to have a wider range of skills, from designing a dress to putting fabrics together. Meanwhile, seamstresses or seamsters are considered a “jack of all trades” in sewing. Their main task is to sew garments together.

🪡 Machine Repair Summary: Borader 810D with YIXING Servo Motor • Problem began after a needle broke inside the machine. • Since then, the motor RPM number drifts on the display even when the pedal is untouched. • This causes sudden speed surges, leading to thread snapping at the needle. • The pedal position sensor (potentiometer) was tested — re-zeroing, disconnecting, and spring adjustments didn’t resolve the issue. • Disconnecting the sensor triggers ER-4 on the YIXING servo controller, so the machine requires it. • Pedal movement is stiff if the spring is removed, so full bypass is not an option.

I don’t know anything at all but would eventually like to know as much as possible. I would need to get used to the machine, learn different kind of sewing stitches, learn about patterns, fabrics etc. 40$ an hour is what I’m hoping to stay around but negotiable. I will provide all the tools necessary just please tell me what I’ll need and I’ll get that. So excited and hope someone reaches out!
