Create Coffee-Cup Holder Coats: We need 2x green parkas turned into coffee-cup carrying coats inspired by the design in the attached photo. Materials Provided: 1. 2 x green parkas (100% polyamide). 2. Wide green elastic band (75mm wide, 2 yards per coat). 3. Sewing materials (needle, thread, scissors). Let me know if you need an electric sewing machine. Instructions: 1. Arrange 3–5 elastic loops per row on the coat. Stagger the rows evenly across the front and mark placements before sewing. 2. Cut the elastic into pieces to fit snugly around a coffee cup. Seal the ends (use a lighter or heat sealer if needed to prevent fraying). 3. Sew each elastic loop securely at the top and bottom, ensuring it holds the cups firmly. 4. Check all loops to ensure they’re secure and trim any excess thread for a clean finish. Estimated Time for Machine sewing: ~2 hours per coat. Let me know if you need extra materials or clarification!

I’m looking for someone new who I can count on to provide me with alterations, without extortionate pricing like half of the city’s tailors. What I typically need is trousers shortening/hemming with some slight tapering, and shirts/blazers to have sleeves shorted (I’ve never really had to adjust shoulders or waists much thankfully). Can drop off items to you directly (likely 3 suits (2 piece) and 4-5 shirts In the past I’ve typically paid a flat fee of £10-15 per item with my usual tailor (Ben Gold) who is sadly getting on a bit.
