Bit of a strange one, I own and run Spacesuit.Rentals and for years my Apollo suits used on tv are a heavy cotton drill. They used to be made by a seamstress who made sails but has now retired and I'm looking for someone to copy a suit I have to replace an ageing suit and then work with me to update and make changes to modernise the accessories. I can handle all the design of those parts and the metal but I can't pattern or sew the suit. he suits are really a heavy cotton drill, a boiler suit with a zip up the back, and I'm looking for someone to take one, pattern it and replicate it. I can supply the material, I just do not have the skill. I know this is a strange one, but your skills and work with what seem heavy materials may be the answer. I can supply many a photo if you need a quick look. These suits have been used by Strictly Come Dancing a few years back, David Bowie was my first client etc etc. Many thanks in advance - Lee (Colchester - Essex)

Pattern maker and seamstress for athleisure wear
I am looking for a pattern maker who can create a sweatshirt pattern (I've got some rough ideas of having a slightly more curved and oversized sleeve), as well as a seamstress who can sew together the pattern pieces once they have been printed and dyed. (If you are both a pattern cutter and seamstress that would be amazing.) I need the final sweatshirts (5 in total) to be of high quality as I will be showing them at my postgrad degree show, my website and possibly to an independent boutique. Looking for a quick turnaround for both patterning and sewing. Many thanks Funmi
