Check it out

It's going to be awhile before I can get to it, but I bought it anyway...

*excuse the typo in the title. I got a little excited.*

Looks interesting. I tried to find the pattern on Vogue's site, but it's not there, although it's included with the class. It also says that you can use a pattern of your choice. I wonder how a pattern without the princess seams would work, fitting-wise with this class? I may have to try this - can't beat the price. Thanks for the heads up.

I was just watching the videos, and she suggests using the pattern that comes with the class so she can help more accurately. Then at the end she'll show how to transfer your changes to other patterns.

I just signed up and watched the first 3 lessons. So far, the lessons have been excellent. I'm looking forward to receiving my pattern...I need some new pants!

Please keep the rest of us posted on this I love Sandra B. Hope she has some tips we haven't already tried yet.

I bet you will really enjoy it. Years ago, I got one of her early pants videos (using Burda patterns), and I learned a lot.

Thanks for letting us know! I have a couple of Sandra's dvds but nothing on pants fit so I will be signing up for this class. I like Sandra's enthusiastic personality and she usually has some good tips to share.

I *love* her! I've watched most of the class, and keep finding myself thinking that I'd really like to meet her. Her personality really shines through.

Thanks for the info. I have a gift from Craftsy for a $19.99 class, I know what I am getting. It is time to get over my fear of pants fitting
