Oct 16, 2017 New Live Event: The Fitting Fun Workshop Fitting is a challenge and even more so when you are fitting yourself. I think I've heard the phrase "I don't have a fitting buddy" more often than I can count. Believe me, I understand. Fitting yourself often means you need to be as flexible as a gymnast and have eyes on the back of your head. Sometimes mirrors and cameras and the help of your husband or partner just won't cut it so I created a new workshop that I think will help you out immensely. It's The Fitting Fun Workshop on November 17, 18, and 19, 2017. Click the image below for all the details! In this three day event, you'll finally understand the fitting process fully by putting the techniques you learn into practice while working on your own personal fitting project.
