Mitcham SA, Australia
25th Mar 2025
I would like to make this dress myself (or could have this made). My pattern drafting skills are not this advanced and my body has changed since I drafted patterns a couple of decades ago. This dress looks like a simple style shift dress with clever seams and a beautiful draped bow incorporated at the waist, to accentuate and enhance. There is a split on one side of the slightly taped skirt. The neck line is boat shaped, there are no sleeves. Its the bow that I would have trouble drafting.

Port Augusta SA, Australia

I have two thick curtains, I want them cut to be 1.2 metres in height. The width is ok and doesn't need to be altered. I did keep the little weights aside to be put back in when cut and hemmed properly, as I cut a lot of excess to make it easier. I'm more than happy to bring them to you and leave them overnight / for a day or two and pick them up again. Will assume each curtain will take an hour or less, and will budget for a highly experienced person to earn up to 50 bucks an hour to help me with this. The successful candidate will demonstrate examples of their work and experience.
