On this short course you will learn how to be more creative with your patterns and be able to copy your favourite styles:
• Move darts to anywhere you wish on the bodice using cut and close or pivot techniques.
• Remove darts but retain the shape by forming princess seams.
• Remove darts and replace them with shaped yokes at shoulder or waist.
• 'Slash and spread' to create fullness, gathers, pleats and tucks.
• Form flounces and frills to add interest to necks or hems.
• Create diagonal or curved seams for colour block styles.
