If you have a fuller bust you may have had problems with fitting commercial patterns.  Buying a bigger size will mean the garment may fit on the bust but will be too big everywhere else.

In this workshop, you will learn how to add fullness just where you need it.  The workshop will cover patterns with no dart, a side dart and princess seams so you should gain a good knowledge of what to do with different designs. Lots of techniques including 

  • Where to measure yourself
  • How to calculate how much adjustment is needed
  • Moving the Bust Point
  • Adjusting Patterns with Side Darts
  • Adjusting Patterns without Darts
  • Adjusting Patterns with Princess Seams

Included with this workshop is a download with notes and templates for you to practice the techniques.
