Fitting Commercial Patterns - FBA

Fitting Commercial Patterns is a very popular workshop for home sewers and textile teachers. This week I've been going all-out to improve the workbook materials for this workshop in preparation for some professional development training I'm delivering in Melbourne next week to the Victorian VET textile teachers. I've decided to share a section of that new workbook in this post, covering the Full Bust Adjustment (FBA) on an existing shirt pattern.


You'll find all the post details here.

Pattern Fix - Back Dress Too Long

How many times have you experienced this: fabric pooling at the back waist in your dresses and shirts?  Well I have the #PatternFix for that!  Unfortunately there is little we can do to save the sample,  but we can alter the pattern to make sure it doesn't happen again. :)

First Sample - Pinstripe Panel Skirt

Do you remember the Pinstripe Panel Skirt? Blogged in May 2014, and first sampled by Capital Chic, this very creative piece of corporate wear is stylish, wearable and very popular. :)
