Customised Tablecloths Needed – Professional Sewing, by this Friday

$350

Southbank VIC, Australia

22nd Oct 2024

Description: I’m looking for an experienced seamstress/tailor to create custom tablecloths using fabric that I will provide. These need to be completed by Friday. Here are the sizes and quantities required: 12 pieces: 122 cm x 50 cm (+ 2 cm extra per side for hemming) 8 pieces: 164 cm x 50 cm (+ 2 cm extra per side for hemming) 8 pieces: 20 cm x 20 cm (+ 2 cm extra per side for hemming) 2 pieces: 140 cm x 20 cm (+ 2 cm extra per side for hemming) Hemming: I’ve calculated an additional 2 cm on each side to allow for a clean, professional hem. I’d like a neat and elegant stitch, preferably in the same blue color as the fabric, to maintain a refined and cohesive look. If you're available and able to complete the job by the deadline, please get in touch for further details. Thank you!
