Interested in The Pattern Drafter Masterclass? This course is our 3 day Dress Block rather that our 2 day Pants Block hence the difference in price.  We offer the Dress Block in Term 1 and Term 3 and the Pants Block in Term 2 and Term 4.

Want to learn to make and create your pattern blocks?

Learn and to create your designs that fit you!

This extended weekend course will focus on using the Pattern Drafter System, creating your own dress block and moving forward to create your own basic dress in your own style, fabric and design.

Would you like to learn how to make patterns for dresses, tops and pants that fit you like a glove? Are you tired of spending hours adjusting patterns only to find they still don’t fit? Then why not come along to a 3-day pattern-drafting & sewing workshop, where you will learn how to make patterns in YOUR measurements the quick and easy way, and then sew a garment for yourself or others, using the pattern you’ve made.

Day 1  - Measuring, learning about the ruler, sizing and you will make a base dress and sleeve pattern, using the ruler. You will start to create your muslin.

Day 2 - Muslin creation, fitting, modifications and changes for your shape.  Learn how other students have changed their block as well as your own.

Day 3 -  You will draft your final block that you’ve made including all modifications and changes for your shape including how to modify the pattern into your dress design. Guided sewing instructions for garment creation.

Pattern Drafting has never been easier to do; and you don’t need any previous experience to do this workshop.
