SEWING CLASSES
Learn to sew or refine your technique at Josephine's


Pants Fitting


• (no classes scheduled at this time)

Class Fee: $55
Instructor: Marla Kazell

Class is limited to 3 students

Discover the secrets to achieving superior pant fit by using a combination of flat pattern and draping techniques. Learn how and where to measure the body and pattern, how to make adjustments to the pattern and how to tissue fit any style of pants. Choose any pants pattern and get a perfect fit. Be prepared to be measured and to try on the tissue pattern. You will leave with a pants pattern ready to cut and sew.

Supply List
You will be trying on the paper pattern in class to fit. Do have on the type of undergarments you plan to wear with your pants. Choose the pants pattern of your choice. I recommend Burda patterns for their precise drafting and great fit. The pattern should include the size that fits your fullest measurement below the waist - tummy, hips or thighs.

You will also need:
- paper scissors
- pins
- measuring tape
- seam gauge or 6" ruler
- ruler
- pen or pencil
