You'll learn to read what your fabric is telling you, identify the root cause of a fit problem, and make precise, confident alterations directly on your pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis workshop is a great option if you've made the Florence Pant before (or any pants!) and know they're close but just not quite right—or if fitting has always felt mysterious and you're ready to finally get it right. You'll leave with a fitted, personalized pattern you can return to again and again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho is this for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for intermediate sewists who have some experience with garment construction and are ready to focus on fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrior experience with the Florence Pant is helpful but not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWorkshop Schedule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Making a muslin and conducting a fit assessment\u003cbr\u003eThursday, July 23rd from 6pm–8pm CT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e Identifying and correcting common fit issues—crotch curve focus\u003cbr\u003eThursday, August 6th from 6pm–8pm CT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 3:\u003c\/strong\u003e Identifying and correcting common fit issues\u003cbr\u003eThursday, August 20th from 6pm–8pm CT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass 4:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pattern adjustments and re-fitting\u003cbr\u003eThursday, September 3rd from 6pm–8pm CT\u003c!-- notionvc: a4b3c85f-bd59-4264-9a01-a4d9273b1da3 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do live virtual workshops work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a live, 4-week workshop hosted virtually.
