What do seamstresses include?
It may seem practical to simply go for off-the-rack clothing, but if you want to look your best, the key is to work with a seamstress who knows exactly how to make garments look completely yours.
Here’s what’s on offer when you hire seamstresses close to you on Airtasker:
Pattern cutting
If you’re a budding designer keen on crafting your own 2D designs, you can enlist the help of a seamstress to transform these through expert pattern cutting. This process puts your design onto paper or digital form that will serve as the foundation of an actual, wearable garment. Whether you want a one-of-a-kind dress or are looking to get a head start in launching your very own clothing line, Taskers can easily assist you in bringing your vision to life, with the perfect fit and impeccable quality.
Once your personally designed pieces are ready for use, why not hire a professional model to pose in your clothes?
Dressmaking
Struggling to find your dream dress or garment in the shops you visit? A usual downside to ready-to-wear clothing is the fit or size may not always work for your body type. But there’s no need to fret, because you can work with a seasoned dressmaker to craft something from scratch, be it a stunning evening gown or a tailored business attire.
Clothing repair
Accidents happen — and so do tears and rips in your favourite clothes. While it can be heartbreaking, don’t resort to buying a replacement just yet. Book an appointment with a seamstress near you and have your piece restored to its former glory in no time at all. Whether it's a jacket from your college days or an heirloom dress, your hired Tasker can surely save you the trouble of parting ways with your wardrobe staples. You can also have your items dry-cleaned after repairs so you don’t have to wait long to use them again.
Clothing alteration
When your clothes don’t fit perfectly, even the best designs can start to feel wrong. Awkwardly loose shoulder pads or pants that are way too long are just some of the many, many things that can go wrong when you mindlessly purchase off the racks. But if you’ve already spent money on ill-fitting pieces or are hesitant about replacing hand-me-downs that are still in good condition, there’s always a guaranteed workaround to this dilemma. Work with seamstresses close to you, to alter your clothes and make them fit better to your specifications.
Prom dressmaking
Prom may be a special event in a teenager’s life, but your dress doesn't have to come with an eye-watering price tag. Be the belle of the ball without spending three months’ worth of allowance by booking dressmaking seamstresses near you for a custom-made fit. Taskers can craft a unique dress that suits your budget, personal style, and schedule. Pair this with a reasonably rated hairdressing service to complete your entire look.

We are doing some testing for a product and require a series of towels to be sewn together to make larger test samples.

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!

Help sew up my rucksack
£15
Cambridge Heath, Greater London, E2
27th Sep 2024
I have a Roka rucksack. The front pocket has a tear along the bottom so you can't use it. Other than that, the rucksack is in a usable condition, and I like to keep items in use as long as possible I am looking for someone to repair the tear. It's not a massive job, but the material is like rain jacket material, so needs to be good strong stitches that won't break it further, with a patch probably? I'm no expert! I am based in SW London and work in central London, so can discuss drop offs etc

I have two couch cushion covers that need zippers replaced. It’s a bit trickier because I can’t get the covers off the current cushions, because they are overstuffed. Basically, the covers have to be partially cut to remove them and then a longer and sturdier zipper needs to be sewn in.
Fantastic experience!!!
