I've taken a sewing class at a local adult art school and also at a regional/annual Quilt & Sewing Expo - helpful but not enough. What types of patterns did you purchase?
I purchased simple tops, drawstring pants and a Palmer/Plessi Butterick A line dress.
I’ve been watching the Palmer Fitting method on Craftsy. The patterns I purchased are all simple but it’s making things fit, I think is the most challenging.
