Tired of tops that twist, pull at the shoulders, or sit awkwardly around the armhole \u2013 even when you follow the pattern to the letter? In this masterclass, you\u2019ll learn how to create a top with sleeves that looks tailored to your body: flattering over the bust and shoulders, with sleeves that give you both freedom of movement and a clean, professional finish.<\/p>\n
About the Course<\/strong><\/p>\n We start with your body \u2013 not standard sizing. You\u2019ll learn how to take accurate measurements of your upper body and develop a personalised basic bodice block for a top in a woven fabric. This block becomes the starting point for a timeless top with sleeves, with a focus on fit, balance, and beautiful lines around the bust, shoulders, waist, and hips.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll then draft a basic sleeve tailored to your own arm and your own armhole, so that the sleeve follows your movement without feeling tight or creating excess fabric. You\u2019ll see how the bodice and sleeve work together, learn how to transfer the pattern to fabric, cut and sew a toile in cotton calico, and work systematically through adjustments to both the top and sleeve until the silhouette fits the way you want it to.<\/p>\n The course goes in depth on the basic construction of a sleeved top \u2013 we deliberately leave out collars, cuffs, and advanced shirtmaking details, so that you can gain full control of the most important elements first.<\/p>\n Who Is This Course For?<\/strong><\/p>\n For you if you want tops that look more tailored than homemade<\/p>\n For you if you\u2019re tired of having to \u201crescue\u201d commercial patterns and want to build your own from scratch<\/p>\n For you if you want to master a good basic block for tops with sleeves before adding more details<\/p>\n For you if you want a reliable foundation that you can develop further yourself \u2013 or build on in the sleeve course later<\/p>\n COURSE FORMAT, PRICE & PRACTICAL INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n Location:<\/strong> Kathrine N\u00f8rg\u00e5rd Atelier, Frogner, Oslo All course dates:<\/strong> See the updated schedule in the online shop.
