Join Legacy Fabrics and Jan, a Palmer/Pletsch certified instructor, and learn how to fit and adjust a paper pattern to your correct size! Does fit scare you? Think positive. YOU have a perfect body. It is the pattern youneed to change! Finally, a class that will empower you to be able to fit yourself and create beautifulclothing. If the back of your pants gap, the front bulges, the waist is too short, or crotch depth too deep, you need this class! If you have a full figure, or find all pants too baggy, this class will give you the confidence to sew your own pants! We will start by choosing the best size for you, based on your hipmeasurement. Once your correct size is determined, we will work together onlearning how to use the Palmer/Pletsch method to make alterations to the paper pattern. It’s easy; it’s practical; it applies to all pattern companies. Plus it’s nearly measure-free;no need to draft every design from scratch; no need to make a muslin. Learn tobuy the right size by taking only ONE measurement. Jan is a certified Palmer/Pletsch tissue fitting and sewing instructor and in this one day class, she will help you achieve a great fitting pair of pants. You’ll learn the skills to work on your own on garments that will flatter your body, no matter your size or shape. Classes are small and allow for personal attention as you work. The pattern is included in the class. There will be some basic supplies needed for the class, some will be provided, and the others will be sent in an email before the class. The class will go from 10am-5pm - (it could end sooner, it depends on the number of people in the class) It is no longer a requirement to take the Palmer/Pletsch Tops Course in order to take this Pants fitting class! Yay! However, if you are brand spanking new to sewing it would probably be helpful to do so! Pattern Used: Butterick 6845 Semi-fitted, tapered pants have waistband, side-front pockets & front mock-fly zipper. Supplies Needed: Jan will be reaching out to you after you sign up to confirm the materials needed. We (Legacy Fabrics) typically have the tissue pattern paper, the Complete Guide to Fitting book, and the gridded cardboard mats (for classroom use) here at the shop!
