Looking for someone who sews?


Recommended Posts

Hi,


Unusual request, but I am looking for someone who can sew and is willing to take on a mini personal project?

My father passed away from cancer a few years ago and although I cleared out almost all his belongings, I kept his collection of ridiculous T-shirts and thought I could have then patched into a blanket/quilt as a keepsake.

I had rather neglected the idea - but whist doing a spring clean this weekend I found the bag of t-shirts and thought I would reach out to see if anyone can help?

Or if that fails, any advice on a local business that can complete the task is much appreciated!

Please let me know if you would be up for said task, or know someone that would and costs involved (there is around 20-30 t-shirts I think)


Many thanks!

Jessica

Hi Jessica

That is a lovely idea and I'd be more than happy to help. Maybe it would be a nice thing to do together? Bring them along to my studio and we'll have a look at the best way to do it. I've made a few quilts from the clothes left by family and it's a lovely way to remember them.

My number 07894438163,

Sue

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
