What do seamstresses include?

Ready-to-wear clothes don’t always cut it. You may need a dress for a special occasion or an alteration to achieve a perfectly fitting suit. Or perhaps you simply need to repair a broken zip or mend a beloved garment. Whatever type of sewing you need, our platform connects you with nearby sewists who can do the task. Here’s a list of sewing services you can get done on Airtasker.  

Pattern cutting 

Pattern cutting is translating your design onto paper or digital form. The pattern serves as a template for creating wearable clothes. Achieve a bespoke dress that fits you perfectly, or create unique garments for your clothing business. Our platform helps you find local sewists with pattern cutting skills. Once your collection is ready, hire a model to pose in your clothes while a photographer takes amazing product photos for your website. 

Dressmaking 

You may find clothes you like, but the fit or size just doesn’t work for your body type. Or perhaps you have a dress in mind to wear to an event, but you can’t find it at shops near you. With the help of a dressmaker, you can still get the dress of your dreams. You can have a variety of clothes made, from midi dresses, ball gowns, to business suits.

Clothing repair 

We all have our go-to outfits, and it can be heartbreaking to find a tear or a hole in an irreplaceable piece of clothing. Maybe you bought that shirt abroad, had it custom-made, or splurged on that one expensive dress or jacket. No need to say goodbye to your beloved garment just yet! Instead, find a seamstress or seamster who can fix up your clothes, so they look as good as new. Taskers may even offer to dry-clean your dresses after the repair. 

Clothing alteration 

Some clothes may fit well, except for an awkwardly loose part around the shoulders. Or pants could have a flattering fit but are far too long for your height. With clothing alteration, you no longer have to settle for ill-fitting clothes. A nearby local seamstress can alter your clothes to create custom-fit garments, whether it’s a new suit that needs to be tailored or hand-me-downs that need to be shortened. After your alteration, have a Tasker iron your suit, and you’re good to go for your business event! 

Prom dressmaking 

Prom is an exciting time in a teenagers’ life. Most pretty dresses, though, can leave a big dent in your wallet. With Airtasker, you can look like the belle of the ball at prom with a dress that was made just for you. Please tell us how we can help you achieve your dream dress. Then, wait for offers from experienced sewists who can work with your design, budget, and schedule. Afterwards, find affordable yet professional hair stylists and makeup artists to do your hair and help you achieve the perfect evening look on prom night.

Sewing cushions for a photoshoot

$250

Geelong VIC, Australia

12th Dec 2024

I'm seeking someone to urgently sew 15 cushions for a photoshoot like the ones in the photo.

Teach me how to sew a few pieces

$100

Geelong VIC, Australia

11th Dec 2024

I have bought a few things from the op shop that I want to change and/or make other clothes from, but I'm not sure how. I have a sewing machine but I'm not sure if I have the right needles and equipment etc. I recently did a beginners sewing class so I know some basic sewing skills, but I just don't know how to make these adjustments to my clothes. The adjustments include adding extra material to make them longer, taking in the waist, making a skirt from a dress etc. Some of the material is stretchy, chiffon, and some is denim. I can come to you (in/around Geelong or Melbourne), or you can come to mine in Hamlyn Heights or Carlton. I want to learn so I can do it to future pieces, too. Hopefully we can have some fun! :)

Sewing of leather

$200

Torquay VIC, Australia

4th Jul 2024

I have a large amount of sunglasses cases for my brand I need sewn. It’s a thick leather type material. The cases were giving me issues so I decided to sew them all to prevent any issues I will show you in photos what’s happening and in the red line is where it needs to be sewn. I have had a few sewn and it literally took 40 seconds a case and that’s extra time. I watched it. I think you need a walking foot and a different type of needle but anyway I have a bunch and it would be ongoing work until they’re all gradually done, I just need them bit by bit Thanks so much I hope you can help

She has found a sample of the sequinned type fabric she'd like at Spotlight, which I have attached a photo of, and the top of the dress she'd like in a black lace (in the same positioning as the existing dress).
