fitting resources from liesl + co.

Two years ago, we compiled all the fitting guides that had previously appeared on the blog into one comprehensive package brimming with tips for achieving a well-fitted garment. Fast forward to today, and we’ve expanded our offerings significantly. Not only have we introduced a brand-new blog series focusing exclusively on the art of fitting, but we’ve also created numerous additional pattern adjustment tutorials. Our aim is to provide an extensive collection of resources for fitting your homemade clothes right here on the blog. If you enjoy customizing your projects to ensure a perfect fit, you’ll want to explore these listings to discover whether any of them could assist you now—or pique your interest for future projects. The Fitting Room Series Just under a year ago, we launched The Fitting Room series, where sewing enthusiasts guide readers through the pattern adjustments and fitting techniques they employ to craft their garments. These posts are a goldmine of fitting knowledge. Currently, we have seven posts in this series, with more in development. Starting from the top left and moving clockwise, they include: Masha’s Gelato Blouse, where I demonstrate full bust, full bicep, and high round back adjustments. Meg’s Classic Shirts, where you can follow Meg as she explores four iterations of the same pattern, detailing the modifications she made for each version. Claire’s Recital Shirts, where Claire shares her muslin process and the final perfectly fitted result. Camelia’s Saint-Germain Wrap Dress, which also guides readers through a meticulously tailored muslin process. Lauren’s Classic Shirt, featuring detailed measurements and more muslins. Sharon’s Cappuccino Dress, where Sharon illustrates how she adapts a tried-and-true pattern to suit her body shape. Jennifer’s Easton Cowl-Neck Tee, where Jennifer showcases her experiments with one of our latest patterns, explaining how she refined each iteration for improved fit. Pattern Adjustment Tutorials In addition to the Fitting Room series, we’ve added several fitting tutorials to the blog. Here's a summary: Bust Adjustment Tutorials How to Perform a Dartless Pivot-and-Slide Full Bust Adjustment This tutorial is ideal for creating extra room in a t-shirt or any pattern without darts.
