About the Event
Big or small, high or low, most of us need to adjust the bust on sewing patterns. This class will be a workshop-style class including both demonstration and hands-on practice using pattern samples so that you can get familiar with doing adjustments.
During the 3 hour Adjust the Bust Workshop, Beth will show you how to do a variety of bust adjustments on a sample pattern (provided), which you can take home for future reference. On your sample pattern, you will learn how to:
- Adjust the bust on a variety of styles
- Do a full bust adjustment
- Do a small bust adjustment
- Adjust princess seams
- Raise and lower bust darts
- Add darts to achieve a better fit
This class has 3 hours of instruction followed by an optional 2 hour Fit Lab. This is a pattern alteration class and will not involve using a sewing machine.
For the optional, 2 hour Fit Lab part of the class, bring your own pattern to learn how to do your bust adjustment with Beth. We have limited the fit lab to only 4 students so that each participant can take full advantage of Beth's hand's-on pattern alteration advice.
Class will be from 10am - 1pm
Fit Lab (optional) will be from 2pm - 4pm
Skill level: Advanced beginner - Intermediate
Supplies: All supplies are included (for Fit Lab, bring your own pattern)
