Of course, I can dream that it will all work out perfectly, out of the envelope with no alterations. I'm allowed to do that. :-)<br /><br />I am so pleased that you have revolutionized your undergarment wardrobe. Seriously, it's one of the more meaningful things you're likely to do. Seems crazy, but it's a life-changing move.K.Linehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350615302797686048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-88899185522517891542012-10-31T10:20:56.897-04:002012-10-31T10:20:56.897-04:00What pattern did you pin?

It's a free pattern from the 40s.<br />I'd like to give it a go sometime. I bet it would be more flattering in a knit. I'm looking forward to seeing Sunni's tutorial :)Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04719917783641156738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-54918820261598563732012-10-29T23:15:44.579-04:002012-10-29T23:15:44.579-04:00Glad you're feeling better.

How to fit the shoulders and the upper chest as well as the bust without getting odd folds due to the dolman shape? I am looking forward to your posts about it - especially about the shaping options in this pattern. <br /><br />P.S.

One thing I noticed is ...I love dolman style tops!<br /><br />One thing I noticed is that the regular neckline, as opposed to the vee, seems to be cut fairly high on the neck with no opening of any sort to make it large enough to get over your head. Is there a placket style facing that's used for a back opening?debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04879013275518538838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-63693360547946302852012-10-29T18:22:55.655-04:002012-10-29T18:22:55.655-04:00Sooooo cute!

Though your pattern has some really great additional elements that make it really stand out. Lovely pattern and I think the perfect sewing project after what you've been through. So good to have you back!Sunnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380215145775412897noreply@blogger.com
