Affordable Tailor Needed for Custom Shirts, Dresses, and Alterations

$5

Brisbane QLD, Australia

8th Aug 2024

I am seeking an experienced and reliable tailor in Brisbane for ongoing custom clothing and alteration services. The job includes: • Custom Stitching: Creating shirts and dresses based on provided designs or your own. I will supply the fabric, primarily cotton. If another fabric/material is needed, I’m happy to shop with you at Lincraft or your preferred store. • Alterations: Adjustments to existing clothing to improve fit and style. Requirements: • Experience in tailoring, with a portfolio or examples of previous work. • Ability to work with cotton fabric (as I’m unable to wear any other material). • Reasonable pricing with the flexibility to negotiate. A placeholder rate of $5 is listed, but I’m prepared to pay up to $35 per item depending on the work involved. • Availability for ongoing work rather than a one-time project. I’m looking for long lasting relationship, again, not a one-time project. I value quality work and am looking for someone who can become my go-to tailor for all my clothing needs. If you're interested, please reach out with your rates, a bit about your experience, and examples of your work if possible. Let’s discuss how we can collaborate! Location: Brisbane, QLD (I can drop off and pick up items, if it’s within 10km from Brisbane city)
