Jennifer created and sewed side pockets into 3 dresses for me. She did an excellent job and I couldn’t be happier with the result.

Whether you need a jumpsuit made from scratch or a dress was taken up, you’ll find Taskers who can help. Here’s a list of sewing tasks you can get done through our platform. 

Custom sewing 

Hire a sewist who can create clothes for you based on a sketch, existing garment, or Pinterest inspiration. Bespoke dressmaking or tailoring lets you achieve the perfect fit and style. And you’re sure to have a one-of-a-kind garment you’ll love to wear for the years to come. Sewing experts can sew custom garments, including prom dresses, costumes, wedding dresses, and polo shirts.

Clothing repair 

Sewists offer clothing repair services. They can fix a broken zip or sew on a button. No task is too small! Clothing repair also includes mending holes and stitching up linings. Discovered a rip on your dress, and your party is a few hours away? Put up a task and find nearby sewing services in minutes. 

Once you’ve accepted an offer, your Tasker can come by and deal with your clothing emergency. If you’re in no rush, go ahead and have a sewer fix up or restyle an old garment you love. You could even hire a Tasker to dry-clean a dusty coat or iron your clothes. 

Clothing alteration 

Sewers can alter clothes in many ways, such as adjusting the length of trousers or tightening a skirt around the waist. Sewing experts can also add features to a garment, whether it’s adding nifty pockets to a dress or sewing patches onto sleeves. 

Clothing alteration is a great way to customise or update a garment to a wearer’s preference. Find sewing alteration services near you today by putting up a task and telling us what you need to be done.
