The short course will cover:

  • Basic pattern making principles and terminology

  • Taking body measurements

  • Working out fabric metreage for your skirt, cutting out your skirt and then sewing it up in calico  to the fitting stage

  • Trying it on, fitting it on your body and then making any necessary adjustments to your pattern.
