Meet your pattern making tutor..

Hi! I’m Alys, a pattern maker who's worked for brands like Alexander McQueen, steventai and Teija. I teach in a fun and easy way through online courses.

It’s my mission to demystify pattern making and fitting - I love to help unpick overwhelming subjects and make them easy to understand through bite-sized techniques and plenty of try-it-yourself exercises.

I don’t believe in the ‘perfect fit’ - instead I want to help you focus on making clothes that feel good and fit the way you want.

And as always, help you enjoy the beauty of the process as much as the end result.
