Hancock Fabric Patern Making class

[CherryRed]

My local Hancock's is having a 2 1/2 hr seminar on pattern making and some other things the end of April for $7. I am hoping to go so I can be less scared of adjusting my vintage patterns.
Has anyone ever attended one of these courses?

I registered for this yesterday and am going on the 24th. I will let you know how it goes.

Try and bring some specific questions to ask, like maybe how to measure the amount of ease in a pattern, or how to lengthen/shorten - those are a couple really basic ones, but I'm sure you've got others. Maybe even bring a garment you've made, but are unhappy with, and in case there's time to ask how to remedy the fit?

And don't be scared of adjusting! Trace a copy of the vintage pattern and use cheap fabric for your muslin, and you'll have nothing to worry about!

Have fun!
