Description Create perfect-fitting shirts without a partner! Learn an easy yet remarkably effective system for tissue-fitting on the body alongside sewing experts Pati Palmer and Melissa Watson. Start with a simple trick for choosing the perfect blouse size, as well as how to prepare a pattern for tissue-fitting. Move on to fitting and even discover the secrets that allow you to fit yourself! You’ll see how to assess the fit of a pattern in the back, shoulders, bust and hips, and make adjustments for all types of figure variations. Then, build your alterations expertise with step-by-step instructions for full bust and Y-bust adjustments. Finally, get in-depth guidance to make your fabric fitting nothing short of a stunning success. Important Pattern Information The sewing pattern on which this class is based — McCall’s 6750 — is not included with your purchase and may be out of print — check with online retailers. This class is rich in essential sewing techniques, so if the pattern is out of print, we encourage you to look for an alternative pattern with similar style details. You might also be able to find the original pattern through a private reseller.
