Reserve list for GETTING THE FIT
Pippa Pease £40 Wednesday 18 February 2026 10 am – 3:30 pm Confident beginners/intermediate
Do you struggle with the fit of your makes? Too long, too short? A full bust? (Most patterns are designed for a B/C cup) Strange wrinkles and pulls? Choosing the right size?
Pippa will take you through all the essential fit issues to gain a better fit for your makes. We’ll look at full/small bust adjustments, lengthening and shortening, shoulder and back alterations and waist/hip adjustments. Plus, any others that crop up on the day. Let’s make the next project fit.
During the day Pippa will demonstrate how you might alter a pattern to fit. You’ll then get the opportunity to try out the alteration yourselves on a scaled down version of a pattern. This will then give you the technique to look back on when you have a go on the real thing. If you have a particular fit question or a pattern/garment that has a particular fitting issue, please bring it with you.
