Our Most Popular Workshop: Fitting for Curves

Our best-selling online workshop, Fitting for Curves, takes you step by step through 16 of the most common pattern adjustments–including the famous full bust adjustment–so you’ll feel confident achieving a fantastic fit.

Why is this class so popular among curvy sewists? Just ask customer Margaret:

I just finished this tutorial and must say it is the most informative and understandable I have ever seen. My upper bust is about 4″ smaller than my full bust so I do need a full bust adjustment. Also, I help various ladies from my sewing guild with fitting and definitely have needed the high round back adjustment with one of them. This tutorial will help me with my own fitting as well as helping my friends with theirs. Thank you.

“Thank you so much for making this online workshop. Many things I knew intuitively from my years of sewing, but many I DID NOT. What an incredible source of information you are.
