Struggling with gaping necklines, tight busts, draglines you can’t interpret, or patterns that never seem to fit quite right?
This immersive one-day G&G Sewing Masterclass is designed to give you the clarity, skills, and confidence to fit a bodice that truly works for your body. Using the well-loved Ashton Top from Helen's Closet Patterns as your base, you’ll learn how to create and fit a toile, identify fit issues, and make personalised adjustments with expert guidance. You’ll leave with a fitted bodice toile and an adjusted pattern you can use for tops, dresses, and future projects.
With a maximum of just 6 students, you'll have plenty of room to take full advantage of the bright, airy studio and high cutting tables. Plus, there will be ample time for one-on-one support from Emma.
Why this masterclass?
Many sewists find it difficult to analyse fit issues on their own - or know how to correct them. In this one-day masterclass, you’ll receive personalised one-to-one fitting support while also observing fittings on other students, giving you a far deeper understanding of how different fit issues appear and how to address them.
You’ll spend focused time refining your toile and applying adjustments so that you leave with a truly custom-fit pattern you can use for future projects. With no complicated maths or drafting blocks required, this class shows you how to use an existing pattern with essential bodice features as a base, and adapt it beautifully to fit you.
Fitting can feel intimidating, but this masterclass is designed to be approachable, encouraging, and body-positive. Students feel comfortable, supported, and empowered throughout the process.
