New Stitch School Class! Draft Your Own Pattern
Fancy drafting a pattern? We’ll show you how!
Have you made a few garments, but keen to try your hand at drafting your own pattern from a bespoke block? Learn everything you need to know from our resident sewing expert, Becca, in our brand new Stitch School class, Introduction to Pattern Drafting.
Becca will guide you through how to take super accurate measurements and create a simple block for both a bodice and skirt – from scratch!
We’ll show you how to fit the blocks to your measurements and adapt the pattern into a basic fitted shift dress, that hugs you in all the right places!

We’ve got it covered!
We know that sometimes it’s tricky to find the perfect matching buttons for your finished make – especially if it’s something super special like the 1960’s Coat. The best option in this case is to make covered buttons that you know will go perfectly with your new make!
We’ve added a handy little tutorial to guide you through the process, and if you’re already a Stitch School member, you will find the course already linked in your account!

Conquer those cuffs!
Here at Sew Over It we use a particular method to bind cuff openings on quite a few of our patterns; the Esther Blouse, Clara Blouse and Ultimate Shirt to name but a few!
It’s a little bit fiddly but hopefully with Becca’s expert tuition you’ll be able to breeze through! If you’re already a Stitch School member, you will find the course already linked in your account.
