This is a fun activity in Edinburgh
Create your own perfectly fitting skirt block in this one-day workshop. The skirt block is a perfect starting point for learning how to draft your own blocks and patterns.
Join me for a fun and inclusive day of learning as we guide you at your own pace through the process of creating your very own skirt block based on your unique measurements. We'll then make a toile to fit test and transfer these adjustments to your patterns. Finally, we'll briefly look at how to use your block to create different variations of skirt designs.
In this welcoming and supportive environment, you'll learn the fundamentals of pattern drafting, from taking accurate measurements to translating them into a custom skirt pattern. I will be by your side every step of the way, offering personalised guidance and expert tips to ensure your pattern fits like a dream.
Please bear in mind for this workshop we'll be mostly standing, working at the cutting table with small parts of the day seated for sewing or breaks.
You are welcome to bring lunch (there is a fridge, microwave, cutlery, and kettle available to use) or there are a large choice of cafes on Easter Road, a 2-minute walk away! Tea, coffee, and sweet snacks will be provided. You will be welcome to stay in the studio for lunch and/or return to continue your patterns at any time.
