This is a brief overview of the Course and what it entails.
This explains the tools required in this Course.
Move a dart on a dress block by realigning the front across the waist and center points, preserving dart width while shaping an s-curve or panel.
Learn to split a dress dart into three sections using a center line and precise spacing to shape lines, slimmer silhouettes, and flattering fits.
Learn how to combine darts in a bodice using the smash and spread method, move and merge dots to reshape pattern lines, and convert dots to panels for bodice design.
Explore the slash and spread method for manipulating darts, tracing and transferring lines on pattern blocks, preserving waistline, notches, and adding seam allowances for a clean final pattern.
Explore converting a dart into a panel by aligning angles, moving points, cutting away excess, and joining to form the final panel.
Convert a dart into a flare in a skirt by redrafting the block, dropping lines from the dart tip, and adjusting waist-to-hip ease with careful cutting and measurements.
Convert a dress dart into a flare by drafting from the base of the dart to the hem, aligning with the neck, and forming the pattern.
Convert a dart into gathers by drawing tiny dotted lines to show where the dart will gather, transforming the dart into gathers.
Convert a full dart into a tuck dart by drawing a line at two to three centimeters to shape the top, emphasizing this design detail for a refined finish.

Note from the Instructor:
We know first-hand what it feels like to learn new concepts in order to improve skills and charge higher prices. We also understand how challenging some students find online learning. That was exactly why we approached this Course from a different perspective. Our Online Courses were created to get our courses to students who do not live in our location but also want to benefit from our knowledge.
Why are we so confident you will get the best from our Online Course? Simple! We teach our concepts from scratch because we also learnt the concepts from scratch in a very jovial atmosphere. Learning new concepts can be daunting but we had to make it fun for you! I learnt everything from scratch myself. We are GREAT at what we do! It's time for you to take that plunge too and start to earn some serious income from your fashion business!
