REI in Seattle uses Rainy Pass Repair. I can't vouch for them but you
could give them a call.

I can't say specifically for the Seattle area, but I'd look to sailbag
makers or folks who specialize in canvas work for boats.  I've had a
couple of Filson bags repaired here locally by a woman whose business
is the former.

You need someone with a sewing machine that can go through that
stuff.  Also, you might make sure are using waxed thread (or some type
of analog) so that the stitching doesn't act like a wick in the rain.

hope that helps!
