Join us for the inaugural session of our "Fit + Sew" series, focusing exclusively on crafting the perfect pair of pants. Known as one of the more challenging garments to fit properly, pants require precise adjustments at various points to achieve a custom fit.

Participants will begin their journey by crafting a muslin, or a practice pair of pants, to identify and pinpoint fit issues. Under the expert guidance of our seasoned seamstress, fit adjustments will be made directly on your body. These modifications will then be transferred back to your original pattern, creating your PERFECT pants pattern. With this tailor-fitted blueprint in hand, you will proceed to sew your final piece, implementing the adjustments with continuous support from our expert, ensuring you end up with a pair of pants that you love!
