A live online class teaching the construction of a bespoke cutting pattern for the classic women's pencil skirt and variations. No previous experience required. Literature provided.

This class is dedicated to the drafting of the bespoke pattern from scratch. Based on actual body measurements, rather than using pre-fabricated blocks, the course teaches the art of cutting for the individual - yourself or a customer.

This course takes place on Fri 30th May 2025, 10am to 12:30pm UK time. 

Participants will be able to create their own patterns using the literature we provide with the class. Measurements are in the metric system.

To enhance the online experience, we draft in small scale, on A3 paper. A measuring tape and set of instructions are provided prior to the course.

Included in the fee:

• Your complete cutting pattern in 1:3 scale
• The skill to repeat the draft for anyone, anytime
• Written instructions for future reference
• A recording of the lesson for download
