Welcome to the 2023 Fabulous Fitting Techniques course!
Do you sew or alter your own dance and skate costumes?
Are you tired of how the sleeves on your dresses look terrible and stop you from lifting your arms overhead with pulling on the dress?
Do you find it difficult (maybe impossible) to have your competition dress fit well enough to offer good bust support?
Have you spent hours, days and weeks look on the internet and YouTube trying to figure out how to get rid of all the wrinkles on your performance dress so it looks smooth and shapely?
If you answered YES to any of the questions above, you are gonna love my latest Sew Like A Pro™ course: Fabulous Fitting Techniques!
If you decide to join this 6-week live course, it will dramatically up-level your dressmaking process. Together, we will have six live, intensive sessions in February, March and April. You have two weeks between the live classes off so you can catch your breath and do the sewing.
All replays and training materials related to the 6-week Fabulous Fitting Techniques course are housed on a private membership site. (Not on Facebook.) You will have "lifetime" access to the fitting course membership site so you can visit and re-watch the videos as often as you need to continue growing and improving your dress fitting skills.
Read below for more details.
I hope you will join me for this revolutionary dressmaker course.

P.S. "Lifetime" means until there is no more internet, until you pass on, or a few years after I bite the bust when the savings are spent and there is no one to pay the bills.

CURRICULUM OVERVIEW
(See the detailed curriculum below.)
Session one: leotard
Using your existing store-bought patterns (or custom-made if you make your own), we will dive deep into dressmaker practices so you can learn to shape and manipulate both the pattern and your leotard so it looks and feels better.
Session two: bust support
What 3-D hardware offers further bust support to a beautifully fitted leotard?
Decorative straps, bras and bra cups are the answer. Now that you have a leotard that forms to your body. Creating built-in bust support is the next step and the focus of this session.
Session three: live dressmaker critiques
This session in an interactive Hot Seat Critique in which I get to personally help solve dress fitting problems.
Members can post their questions and photos of a dress on which they need help. The Zoom meeting allows me to see the members wearing the dress (or on the dress form).
As always, every learns from open discussions because no one is as smart as every one.
Session four: sleeves
Using your existing store-bought patterns, I will show ways to help your sleeves look and feel like "pantyhose for the arms".
Other items include suitable fabric, stylish wrist finishes, adding a gusset, and more must-know sleeve information.
Session five: skirts
Saturday, April 1, 2023.
Enroll today and join the live fitting class!
Like in previous sessions, this module uses your existing skirt patterns. The fitting goals include how to determine figure-flattering skirt attachment lines as well as how to adjust the skirt to fit beautifully.
Principles apply to all types of dance and skate skirts, no matter what the length.
Session six: live critiques
Saturday, April 8, 2023.
Enroll today and join the live Q&A class!
Personalized session #2. This session focuses on wrapping up our live training. I will try to address any final fitting questions so you feel confident in your new dressmaker skills.
You have the opportunity to submit your questions and related dress images in advance, as well as ask your Qs live.

Thanks SEW much for your interest in the 6-week Fabulous Fitting Techniques course!
I began my own ballroom and skate dressmaking company in 1992. For decades I struggled with my perfectionist tendencies that demanded I create the best fitting dresses possible. And I did. Fitting women's curves was, and still is, my specialty.
In 2014, I was blessed with the idea of beginning an online sewing school specifically for those who want to make women's costumes for ballroom and country dance, ice and artistic roller skating. It is called Sew Like A Pro™.
My school is the only comprehensive, interactive, personalized sewing school for dancers and skaters in the entire world. If you wish, click here to learn more about the sewing school.
Wow, has the sewing school grown over the years! I continue adding training to the school because there is SEW much I want to share with the people in fifteen countries who enrolled in the Complete Latin-Skate or the Complete Ballgown Programs.
In addition to the comprehensive sewing school, I also teach a fair number of free or low-cost classes that are open to the public. Sign up for my newsletter to be notified when the next event is held.
For those who already sew for income (or want to begin doing so), I also created the Dressmaker Business Academy which is a lifesaver for those who struggle running the business!
The Fabulous Fitting Techniques course presented on this page, is the latest creation in my efforts to create a solid collection of courses and programs to suit a wide variety of sewing needs for making dance and skate dresses for women and teenagers.
I hope to see you inside the Fabulous Fitting Techniques course!
Yours in dance, skate and sewing,
Teresa Sigmon
MONEY BACK GUARANTEE
1) My commitment is to teach you how to properly fit, so you can alter and sew, figure-flattering performance dresses for women and blossoming teenagers in the genres of Ballroom, Country, Salsa, Argentine Tango and other partner dancing, as well as artistic roller and figure skating dresses, plus other styles of dance such as lyrical, contemporary, baton twirlers and belly dance.
2) You may participate in the 6-week live Fabulous Fitting Techniques course risk-free for up to 14-days or through the second live session, whichever comes first.
(Service fees of 3%-10% may be deducted from the amount you paid.)
4) To be eligible for the "I can SEW do this!" refund, you must submit your completed homework (including all documents and forms that contribute to each module) as well as photos of your design, your dress and any fittings or sewing you did during the first 14 days of the course.
5) No refunds will be considered until after the first live session. No exceptions. (Meaning you cannot enroll and then change your mind the next day.)
WHY?
I put a tremendous amount of work into creating this fitting course. I know it works -- if you follow the system and do the work.
Because I TRULY WANT YOU TO SUCCEED, you must only enroll in this fitting course if you are willing to do the work -- even if it takes longer than the six weeks over which the live class is held. "Not enough time" is not a valid reason.
YOU HAVE 24/7, LIFETIME ACCESS. There is no hurry. There is no excuse for not learning the professional tools and tips you need to succeed in properly fitting dance and skate costumes for teenagers and adults.
P.S. "Lifetime" means: As long as the internet exists. Until you leave this earth. Or, until several years after I croak and there is no one to teach the live sessions and pay the bills.
I believe in you. YOU CAN SEW DO THIS!
Will I see you in the fitting course? I hope so.
