Take one of your favourite patterns that you love but you can't get the fit right and learn how to adjust the pattern to get the perfect fit. Designed for those who know a little about patterns and how to sew.
This will take you from the start of the day with the pattern of your choice sewn into a toile so that we can see the fit, then its on to the adjusting, learning from each other adjustments and tweaking your own you will then sew up another toile to perfect that fit. Adjust again if needed, really perfect that fit of your garment.
What you will learn:
Using your prepared toile, you will learn how to analyse and spot fitting problems as well as learning how to correct, pin and transfer the changes onto your paper pattern.
