I'm hoping this is the right place to ask...if not, I apologize!!
I'm trying to work on a costume for MNSSHP and need a waistcoat made. The design is pretty simple and it looks like the most difficult part would be the buttons/buttonholes. The problem? I can't sew. I don't even have a sewing machine. I am about to order the fabric and have a pattern...not it's just a matter of finding somewhere that will put it together for me. The cost of going to a professional seamstress/tailor is just too much to justify it...especially when I'm providing them with the materials. I need to have this by the beginning of September since we're leaving on 9/9 and I'm wearing it on 9/15. Does anyone know of places in general where they make simple patterns? Obviously since we don't all live in the same town, I'm not looking for specific business names. I'm really looking for ideas of where I could see if they could make the waistcoat for me at a reasonable price since I'm providing them the material and the pattern. Thanks in advance!
