Description

Learn the techniques to design adjustable garments suited to different sizes and make a fabulous jumpsuit

Meet your teacher Laura Martínez del Pozo, better known as Laura peSeta. She tells you a bit about herself, how she got into design, and her biggest creative influences before outlining the course content.

Begin with the key concepts of how to create one-size clothing and see the materials and tools involved. Laura then teaches you how to assemble a pattern by joining its parts.

Next, learn how to cut the fabric for your final project: a one-size-fits-all jumpsuit. Fold the fabric, pin down your pattern, and cut along it to make the top. Repeat the process for the legs.

Once the prep work is done, sew the top first and continue with the pant legs. Bring the whole garment together by joining both pieces and add an elastic waistband with an inside button to adjust the size.

Now you're ready to make your own clothing!
