Overview

"A great fit distinguishes garments that look custom-made from those that look home-made. Sewers at every skill level struggle with fitting: For every new style a sewer wants to try, she is faced with another set of time-consuming pattern adjustments. ""Create a Master Bodice Pattern"" class offers a logical and innovative approach to fitting. Sewing instructor and designer Sarah Veblen shows you how to create a master bodice pattern that is personalized to your body. It's designed to fit and enhance your proportions so that any garment you make from it is comfortable and flattering. Best of all, a master pattern can be used again and again as the basis of any new style you want to make. Your new designs have a great fit built in from the start. This class guides you through the process of creating a master pattern for both a basic darted bodice and a princess-seamed bodice. Sarah shows how to solve common sleeve-fitting challenges, as well as how to fit a full bust. This is the third Master Pattern class in a series of four from Sarah Veblen. The first master pattern class showed how to fit a skirt; the second focused on styles for the master skirt pattern. A fourth class, Styles from a Master Bodice Pattern, demonstrates design variations for the bodice, from necklines to sleeves. The video is an inspiring and instructive class for beginning sewers in understanding what makes a good fit and how to get there from scratch. Intermediate and advanced sewers benefit from the fitting and patternmaking techniques demonstrated in the workshop. All sewers love the polished, professional results they can achieve when working with a custom-fitted pattern."
