Embark on a Tailoring Journey to Perfect Fit

Welcome to our Advanced Pattern Fitting class! Over the next 12 weeks, we’re going to have a blast diving into everything from basic fit tweaks to the nitty-gritty of measuring and adjusting patterns to get that oh-so-perfect fit. You’ll get to play around with making a fitting sloper (basically, a custom-fit muslin) that’s going to be your golden ticket to creating clothes that fit you like a glove, project after project.

This class is perfect for anyone who loves sewing and is keen on stepping up their dressmaking game. Whether you’re sewing for fun or aiming to go pro, our laid-back yet super informative sessions are going to get you there. And hey, it’s not just about learning new skills—you’ll be joining a community of folks who are just as passionate about making their own perfectly fitting clothes.

What You Will Learn

  • Body Analysis: Understand the unique contours of your body, the first step towards custom fitting.
  • Personal Body Measurement: Learn how to accurately measure yourself, an essential skill for any tailor.
  • Pattern Adjustments: Dive deep into the techniques of altering patterns to suit individual measurements, ensuring a perfect fit every time.
  • Creating a Fitting Sloper (Muslin): Develop a muslin sloper that can be adjusted to perfection, serving as a master pattern for all your future creations.

Heads up, you’ll be getting your hands busy with some homework and cranking out a few mock-ups between our classes. It’s all part of the fun and seriously helps in getting those fitting techniques down pat.

Class Supplies

Worry not about gathering supplies for your first class; your presence is all that’s required. You will be provided with a detailed list of necessary supplies at the end of the session, which you can gather from home, purchase from your favorite local fabric store, or find online for your convenience. This approach ensures that you have everything you need for your tailoring journey without any hassle.
