Need hem alterations and repairs for dress and curtains

I'm looking for a reliable alterations tailor to help with a few items. I have a dress that needs a hem shortened by about 2 inches and minor alterations to the bodice for a better fit. In addition, I have two lightweight curtains that require hemming and a quick seam reinforcement along the edges. I’d prefer someone who can come to my home, has a portable sewing machine, and can work with delicate fabrics like satin and cotton blends. Please let me know your availability, estimated turnaround, and any material requirements. The location is in inner London, and I’m aiming to have everything completed within a week if possible.
