Come study with Sarah Veblen, master fitter and author of The Complete Photo Guide to Perfect Fitting.

Anyone can learn to fit.

1. The first key to unlocking the mystery of fitting garments is to use specific axis lines drawn on the test garment.
2. The second ingredient is to train your eye to recognize what fitting problems look like.
3. And the third piece of the puzzle is to practice.

In this two-day class, you’ll learn the basics of fitting. Under Sarah Veblen’s guidance, you’ll practice fitting a darted straight skirt and a princess bodice on another class participant. In turn, your fitting buddy will fit you. Not only will you gain confidence in your ability to fit, but you’ll also come away with two test garments that are well on their way to having a perfect fit.

Artisan Sewing Classes Presents:

Sarah Veblen

Patternmaking is the backbone of creating garments.

There are a number of methods used to develop patterns: flat patternmaking, drafting, draping, copying an existing garment, and enlarging a small-scale pattern. But the purpose of each is the same: to give someone who sews a way to reliably reproduce a garment.

In this 4-day class, Sarah Veblen introduces you to each of these patternmaking methods, so that you understand their differences and have a basic working knowledge of each one. Because flat patternmaking techniques are used in all of the methods, special time and attention will be devoted to learning many flat patternmaking skills.

The class is a combination of lecture, demonstrations, and lots of hands-on exercises. Topics that will be covered include:

• Flat pattern techniques such as walking and truing a pattern, truing dart legs, creating notches, re-positioning a dart, dart manipulation and dart transfers, creating dart equivalents, and making full bust and small bust adjustments.
• Establishing accurate grainlines.
• The difference between industry patterns for ready-to-wear clothing, commercial patterns available to sewing enthusiasts, and custom patterns that dressmakers develop.
• Enlarging a half-scale pattern.
• Basics of draping a bodice.
• Making a pattern from a draped bodice.
• Taking a person’s measurements accurately.
• Basics of drafting a bodice sloper and how to use the draft.
• Copying an existing garment.
