Sound Familiar?
It turns out one size does not fit all.
You just spent hours sewing something only to be disappointed that it doesn't fit...
and worse
…you have no idea how to adjust the gaping here and pulling there?
So, you just stick to sewing oversized garments...
considering
...your narrow shoulders and C cup chest that are outside the standard sizing of patterns…
Or maybe you've set aside your sewing completely...
because
your body changed and things no longer fit the way they used to, even with your new measurements.
Making our own clothes allows us to sew and wear whatever we can dream up...
...but if we don't know how to adjust the pattern to fit our unique body…well, that dreamy garment just isn't a reality.
Let's fix that!
Identify exactly what's causing the gaping, pulling, pooling or uncomfortable-ness.
STEP ONE
Whether it's a neckline that gapes while everything else fits, a tightness across the back, shoulders that droop, or a pooling of extra fabric around your armholes...to name a few.
Pair your diagnosis with the correct pattern fitting techniques.
STEP TWO
It may be as simple just one pattern adjustment or more than likely, a combination of a few, done in the right order.
Sew a test garment and refine. Build your pattern fitting knowledge.
Step three
Make a toile to test your sample fit. You may need to refine a bit but then you carry your new fit knowledge into future garments...the perfect fit found!
