Your session includes:
Personal 1-to-1 help
A session focused entirely on your pattern, your fit and what you need help with.
Two camera set-up
We can chat face-to-face, then switch to my desk camera so you can see me demonstrate adjustments and techniques.
A time that suits you
Book your session at a time that works for you.
Make the most of your time
I'll email you before your session so we can discuss what you'd like help with and make sure we both have everything ready.

Secure payments with PayPal
I'll send you a payment request once we've secured a slot that works for you. Don't worry, you don't need a PayPal account.

Some kind words from my customers:
“I was really struggling to perfect the fit of my DIY trouser block. During our virtual 1-2-1 session, Ali immediately identified my mistakes and gave me the exact steps I needed to fix them. Will definitely book another session if I get stuck with future blocks and adaptions.”
- Florence
“'I had a 1:1 with Ali when I was working on an outfit for a wedding - it was so useful! Ali helped me adjust the fit on the trousers I drafted and also gave me lots of other small tips on pattern details like the zip. I really recommend it if you have a project you want to get just right.”
- Diane
“For the first time I have been able to successfully design and make my own clothes, to my own design and measurements that fit properly! With Ali's friendly approach, seemingly unending enthusiasm, patience, and not inconsiderable experience in the field, I think you will enjoy learning something new.”
