Imagine what life would look like if you made a dress and it fits perfectly on the first try...

A dress you didn’t have to worry about adjusting and readjusting.

Imagine how much time that would cut off your entire sewing process and how much shorter the process will be for you. How you can put the time to better use by spending it on other aspects of your fashion business. Like creating new designs, working on your social media and getting new clients.

Whoosh …

Imagine if after a long day of sewing and delivering clothes, you are confident that all those beautiful pieces you just created would fit your clients perfectly.

I mean, nobody is coming back to complain that the armhole of their dress looks weird and needs readjustments. No one is coming back to say the bust area of their cloth looks too big and they want it rectified. Imagine if you didn’t have to loosen the seams of every cloth you’ve completed.

And now, you live a life where you make perfect fitting clothes all the time.

I know how frustrating and painful it is to see that that outfit you just spent a long time cutting and sewing is too small for you to get into. All the thoughts running through your head about where you got it all wrong.

“Didn’t I add enough seam allowances?”, “Did I bend when measuring?” “Why is this not working?” And all sorts.

Whew…

Now you have to loosen the seams and take the whole cloth apart. And while doing that sometimes, the fabric tears. Then you have to look for appliqués or other sewing accessories to hide the issue.

I know you’ve watched countless of YouTube tutorials trying to fix this fitting problem.  Taken so many online courses in the past but you just can’t seem to get it right. 

Your clothing pieces are still not aligning when you’re sewing. The completed ones are still not looking as snatched and fitted as you want them. And nothing just seems to be working.

 

I know how much you would love to solve this problem once and for all.

Which is why I created this beginner course on pattern drafting which is going to show you:

  • how to make accurate, quality, custom patterns you won’t have to readjust countless of times before getting a perfect fit.
  • How to draft the four most important basic blocks of pattern drafting which is the bedrock from which all clothing designs are made from.
  • Help you correct all the cutting mistakes you’ve been making over the years.
  • Help you fast track your entire cutting process because you won’t always have to start from scratch when making new clothing designs. 
  • Gives you the confidence you need to make perfect fitting clothes for anyone, any time without stress.
  • And also help you lay a strong and solid foundation of cutting which will help build your mastery in fashion and designing.

If others can do it, you can too…

Before now, I used to think pattern drafting was very difficult but taking your course completely changed that for me.

One of the big differences it made me with my sewing is that I now spend less time cutting because I know exactly what I'm doing which takes out all the stress I used to feel in the past.

Apart from this, there is this high level of confidence I now have when I'm sewing because I know the fit of my finished cloth will be just perfect.

And I won't have to worry about unnecessary readjustments.

My name's Mayowa Oye...

About 7 years ago while leaving my corporate job at the bank, I decided to pursue my passion for fashion full time and work as an entrepreneur. 

Seeing that the only cutting skill I had for the business was my free hand cutting skill, I decided to pursue pattern making. Because I realized the free hand method of cutting I knew wasn’t enough to help me work as a professional. And make the kind of clothes my clients wanted.

So I decided to invest in my skills so I can live the kind of life that I want. And now I have 4 unique design collections to my name. One of which I launched on the Fashions Finest Africa runway show in 2019. 

With my experience in this business from over the years, I now teach tailors the fashion school standard of pattern making so they can make an unlimited number of clothing designs and make more money from their fashion business.

When I chose to work with you, I needed someone who would teach me everything pattern drafting to the very last detail. Because in the past, I used to depend a lot on YouTube videos which were sometimes hard for me to follow.

Because I didn’t have the foundational knowledge on pattern drafting. And the teachers usually didn’t go in-depth with explaining the techniques. So I was always left trying to figure things out on my own.

But your classes changed that for me as the video lessons were so detailed and structured in a way that it doesn’t rush the student. But gives them time to learn and also practice within the given time frame.

What stood out for me also was how you set time aside to engage with your students through the live calls.

Anyways, I’m proud to say that I can now pattern draft with confidence knowing fully well that my clothes will fit properly every time I sew.
