A fun, one-on-one 4 hour kickstarter where you’ll learn two very important things - how to adjust your patterns to fit your body, and some of the methods you can use to alter your patterns to create customised design features.

For this lesson we’ll be working with your own patterns, so bring along a pattern from home that you’d like to amend and we’ll start from there!

If you want to troubleshoot a pattern that you’ve sewn previously, please also bring your sewn pieces along.

Together we’ll cover:

• Assessing fit and pinpointing what to adjust

• Various methods of pattern adjustment to achieve better fit

• The tips and tricks to make pattern amendments easily!

• Fundamental methods to add design details to your pattern

• Mocking-up (toileing) your amendments to see the changes
  

And above all, opening your eyes to the limitless options for being creative with clothes!

This lesson will include use of the sewing machine to sample your work.
