What is Draping Society?
— “‘I LOVE making dresses, but getting caught in a spin of fitting confusion has sucked the life out of my sewing room.”‘
I hear this a lot from struggling sewists.
Honestly, any sane person would feel that way.
To make a simple, decent & wearable dress:
- They spend hours/days looking for a pattern
- Tape together & decode the patterns
- Then struggle for days & weeks altering patterns to get a proper fit!
But, what if there was an easier way?
Through my 20+ years of sewing professionally, I built an easy system that anyone can follow & make any dress they want, in any size/shape they want.
I call this system, ‘Direct Construction Method’, and it’s what I teach in our dressmaking membership.
