Summer Fitting School
Four Fridays. Your pattern. Your perfect fit.
You decided to make your own clothes because you wanted to wear things that actually fit you. Clothes that skim in the right places, sit beautifully on your shoulders, and make you feel amazing. How hard can it be, right?
But let me guess… you’re still struggling to get a good fit?
You’ve got abandoned projects piling up because they’re tight across the bust, hanging off your shoulders, or the neckline is just all wrong. Sound familiar? You’re definitely not alone, and I promise you, it’s fixable.
Welcome to Summer Fitting School.
£390.00 inc VAT
Over four Fridays, we’ll work through a pattern of your choice, step by step. I’ll show you how to prepare your pattern to make a toile (that’s your test garment), how to fit it to your body, and how to adjust your pattern so it works for you. No more guesswork, no more crossing your fingers and hoping for the best.
The best part? These are techniques you’ll use again and again. Once you understand your body shape and how to work with it, every future project gets easier. You’ll finally be able to create the clothes you’ve always dreamed of wearing.
This is hands-on, personalised learning with a maximum of just 5 students, so you’ll get plenty of 1:1 attention. No getting lost in the crowd here.
