Costume repair help needed!

[BlackjackGabbiani]

I've got Otafest in two weeks and two of my costumes are broken! But I'm a horrible seamstress so I can't fix the rip in my coat...and I'd really have to wear the jumpsuit while someone else fixed it. They should be simple for someone who knows how to do it, and shouldn't take more than three hours. I'm looking to pay around ten bucks an hour, and there shouldn't be any materials involved other than needle and thread.

I'm in Beaverton if that helps any.

So, can anyone help?

I may be repair it with my sewing machine real quick. 

PS: shouldn't this be in the cosplay chat?

[BlackjackGabbiani]

I'm not sure how well a sewing machine could fix at least the jumpsuit, since I think I have to be wearing it as the alterations are made.

And I put it here because it's not relating to a specific costume or series of costumes.

[BlackjackGabbiani]

I'm sorry to bump this, but it's been six days and I really do need to find someone quickly.

What kind of repair work are you needing? I'm not a pro at sewing, but I might be able to help you out.

why dont i bring my sewing kit to kumoricon light and see what i can do
sound good? i'll prob be there at noonish
let me know if you are intersted so i know wherter to bring stuff

[BlackjackGabbiani]

Ooh, sure, I'll bring the jumpsuit since it's what needs the most repair. Basically the seams are busted in both legs, causing a bunch of fabric to fall down when I walk. Where will you be?

we can meet up at mini con space and if there isnt room i can find somewhere, i go to school there and know the area well

what color is the costume or just what color of thread would be good?

[BlackjackGabbiani]

It's blue and yellow. I think the affected area is all yellow. But it's all inside stitching, so I don't think it'd have to fit all that much.
