FIT-A-THON!
This special 5-day class is offered exclusively for those who have taken the Fit AND Pant workshops.

These students attended the last Fit-A-Thon in January 2008.       Kathryn  Brown Fits Tara Perkins

Come to fit, fit, fit under the guidance of Pati and Marta.
If you have been scanned and have Unique patterns, bring them along.

This event is designed for those who have already taken BOTH the Pant Fitting and Sewing and the Fit workshops and want a refresher and an update. Pati and Marta are continually fine-tuning their techniques and will give you an update slide presentation on fitting pants, bodices, jackets, coats, dresses and skirts. Bring your altered basic bodice from McCall's #2718 if you want to update your sloper or "roadmap" that shows where your body differs from the slopers from which the pattern companies design. You will alter as many fashion tissues as you want and cut any of them out of fabric and do a fabric fitting. FIVE days will give you ample time to update your skills.

This workshop is highly recommended for those teaching fit and pant fit. Teachers will also get, at no extra charge, a new updated teacher CD with the latest slide presentations included. They will also get our new princess bust alteration series which Pati and Marta have fine tuned for their own princess alteration teaching.
