This class focuses on fit and construction techniques. Once the pattern is fitted you will have a customized pattern that can be used to make style changes or adapt other patterns. You will make one suit in class, either a one piece or a tankini. Noreen has a wonderful selection of top quality designer fabrics from which to make you choice.
You must have completed Boob Camp, the basic bra making class before taking this class and have a bra pattern that fits you currently. If your basic bra pattern no longer fits you, Noreen is available to fit you and get you set for the class.
