My answer will depend on which tools you have reference. If you mean needles, these would have been brought over from England or whatever was the starting place for the colonists, at least until a blacksmith was able to replicate the needles. Scissors would have been handled the same way. Things like this would not have been beyond a good smith's ability. Thread would have been spun by anyone able to handle the work. I hopes this answers some of your inquiries.

Colonial tailors would typically source their tools from local merchants or traders who supplied various goods and equipment. They may have also imported tools from other regions or countries via trade routes or through colonial authorities. Some tools were handmade by blacksmiths or other craftspeople within the colony itself.
