Guide to pinning..
HEMMING:
-
Place a safefty pin to indicate the desired finished length of the hem or sleeve.

SHORTENING STRAPS:
-
Pinch together excess at the top of each strap.
-
Pin each strap where it’s pinched, and let it hang to check how it looks, adjust until it hangs perfectly.

WAIST ADJUSTMENTS:
-
Pinch excess material at the waistband, balancing the excess at either side seam.
-
Secure with a pin on either side.

TAPERING SIDES:
-
Begin where the garment has the loosest fit on the body (often the waist).
-
Ensure the excess is balanced at either side.
-
Place the first pin at the loosest area and continue adding pins along both side seams, about 5cm apart, until you reach the well-fitting area.
