Join us for a 3-week pattern cutting course with expert tutor Maria Pulley. In this course, you will learn how to draft basic skirt, bodice, and sleeve patterns using your own body measurements. You’ll also learn how to manipulate darts and adapt patterns to create various styles and designs. Additionally, you’ll gain the skills to adjust patterns for a perfect fit.

Please note for this course you will be working in calico to make toiles, not finished garments.

About your Teacher: Maria is an incredible pattern cutter, designer and seamstress. Her love for creating is infectious and you will come away from any of her workshops feeling inspired.

Class Size: Maximum class size of 6.

Skills: Ideal for those with dressmaking experience.

Materials: You will need a large lever arch file or something similar for your notes and patterns, a sharp pencil and a calculator for those tricky measurements. Additionally, you will be working with calico and pattern paper which you can buy on the day, but if you have some feel free to bring it along.

Course Duration: 3 full days – Thursday 12th/19th & 26th June
