Ready to go beyond basic hems and simple alterations?

Tailor Your Threads II: Fit & Alterations takes your tailoring skills to the next level by focusing on more structured garments and more complex fit adjustments. You’ll learn how to look at a garment, identify what needs to change for a better fit, and determine how to make that adjustment without compromising the garment’s original construction.

We’ll work through techniques for altering denim, waistbands, darts, sleeves, structured garments, and garments with existing zippers, along with more advanced reshaping and fit adjustments.

Bring 2–3 garments from your own closet that you’d like to alter so you can practice these techniques on clothes you’ll actually wear.

YOU’LL LEARN:
Advanced fit adjustments ✦ Denim alterations ✦ Waistbands ✦ Darts ✦ Sleeves ✦ Working around existing zippers ✦ Garment reshaping ✦ Structured alterations

YOU’LL WORK ON:
2–3 garments from your own closet that need more advanced fit or alteration work.

SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate+
You should already be comfortable using a sewing machine and understand basic alterations such as hemming, shortening, pinning, and taking garments in. You do not have to take Tailor Your Threads I at Moxie if you already have equivalent experience.

REAL REVIEWS

Real feedback from real customers

My friends and I loved it so much, we booked another class in two weeks. I had such a wonderful time in the beginner sewing class. Kim was so fun, patient, inclusive, and warm. She’s an AMAZING teacher. I learned so much and was surprised at how many techniques I learned from being in her class. The studio is so cute and inviting. The playlist was a vibe as we all sewed together. I personally love that they encourage you to bring your sewing machine to learn yours. I even went to buy two patterns to try and make a work bag and a seat cover for a buggy for practice. Would highly recommend!! Thanks Kim for everything!
