Needing to sew sideways of kurtha salwar

I need cloth symbols made for my disabled child

$180

Baulkham Hills NSW 2153, Australia

28th Feb 2025

Hi Melissa, I am trying to teach my disabled adult child where his "calm zones" are to go to when he is upset. I need you to make three cloth machine washable and tumble dry proof logos out of cloth that can be ironed on to three couch covers (I can email you the logo) . they need to be about A3 size paper in the landscape view . that is 30 x 42cm with folded under and blanket stitched edges or what ever you think will prevent fraying in the wash and Secondly, I need three cloth machine washable and tumble dry proof logos out of cloth that can have 2 pieces of wide (about 2cm) elastic sewn to them to enable them to go over the back of the bucket seat of a car (so my son can see it when he sits in the seat behind the bucket seat) and over the backrest of his wheelchair. This should have machine washable black elastic and the size should be about the size of an A4 sheet of paper in the portrait view. About 21 x 30cm. It would be great to have them as soon as you can manage. If you cannot get the iron material in a green and in a white colour then please make them from cloth. Obviously, I would like them as soon as you can manage. I am in Baulkham Hills but can't drive at present as I am in bed post surgery recuperating. If you come to my place to see what I mean then you can of course do the sewing at home

URGENT MUST BE FINISHED BY WEDNESDAY CAN DROP OFF SATURDAY/ SUNDAY Short dress for elopement in Vegas I need 3 things done from easiest to hardest 1. Hemmed shorter 2. It is very booby so I need a clasp/button added and extra fabric underneath (either extra from hem OR I do have fabric I’ve purchased) 3. The sleeves are very puffy. I’d like them shorter and tighter. I leave Thursday night to Vegas. I went to pick it up and my seamstress hadn’t even started (was with her for 3 weeks) so I’m really desperate. Happy to travel to drop it off and pick it up, will try on and give more information.

The dresses are donations and going to be used for the Mardi Gras parade. Details: - Need to bring your own sewing machine - Minor alterations include hemming, adjusting straps and adjusting back to fit wider shoulders (like add hook and eye (supplied), sew down excess fabric etc.) - Approx. 12 wedding dresses (some photos attached for reference) - Arrive by 12 for a 12:30pm start this Saturday 8th - Surry Hills location Note: Has to be comfortable with being filmed. Some footage will be used on social media.
