Full Bust Adjustment Workshop

Ever sewn a top that fits perfectly… except across your bust? Where it pulls, gapes, or leaves you tugging at the neckline all day?

Here’s the truth: patterns aren’t drafted for YOUR body, they’re drafted for an industry standard that barely anyone actually fits. And that’s completely fine! Once you know how to adjust for your shape, you’ll wonder why you ever struggled through ill-fitting tops.

A Full Bust Adjustment (FBA) is genuinely a game-changer. It lets you reshape your patterns so the bust fits comfortably without upsizing the whole garment. No more pulling, gaping, straining, or shifting. Just tops that sit where they should, move with you, and feel like you made them for yourself (because you did!).

What You’ll Learn

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll master the technique of adjusting ANY fitted top pattern to fit your bust perfectly while keeping the rest of the garment true to size. By the end of the day, you’ll have the skills and confidence to transform every top pattern in your stash into something that actually works for your body.

What to Bring

• A fitted or semi-fitted top pattern with bust darts (not sure if yours is suitable? Just get in touch and we’ll help you choose!)

• Enough fabric for a toile, or grab some calico from us on the day for £3/metre

Time: 10.30am – 4pm
