Techniques & Tools :: Bust Adjustments

Techniques & Tools :: Bust Adjustments

The bust area of a pattern can be one of the trickiest areas to fit. By learning a handful of techniques and tips, you will be able to modify any pattern to suit you, and get a great fit.

In this class, we will cover multiple bust related adjustments, including:

  • -adding a dart to a dartless top
  • -full bust adjustment (FBA)
  • -small bust adjustment (SBA)
  • -moving and sizing a dart
  • -bust adjustment without a dart (this works on knits, too!)

This class will focus on flat pattern adjustments using examples of bodice patterns.  You will leave with your own samples of the adjustments that you make during class.  There is no sewing during this class, but you may bring along patterns or muslins/garments to get bust-fitting advice from your instructor if there is any time remaining.

This class is Level II.
