Thanks for another reminder as to why it is lovely to be short.<br /><br />Oh, and sometimes that extra fabric needed to cover my generous bust is taken out of the height I don't need. RTW button up tops may not always go around, but at least my belly button is not on display.Seraphinalinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706215125457113080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-58904552660402579632013-01-20T15:18:28.345-05:002013-01-20T15:18:28.345-05:00That does look like a lot of work but I'm sure...That does look like a lot of work but I'm sure every single line will pay for itself in time saved later.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15711792521348799922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-13695676623594385472013-01-20T12:00:43.518-05:002013-01-20T12:00:43.518-05:00Yeah...I have that problem with the required extra...Yeah...I have that problem with the required extra length.

It sounds incredibly practical, but equally stressful. This jacket can't possibly be the ordeal that the last one was! (Knock on wood.)<br /><br />I like being 5'9", but you are 100% right about how talls just simply need more fabric to get the right length. I always buy extra. It just amazes me what some people can squeeze out of one yard.

This year I'm going to try my first tailored jacket.<br /><br />I'm 5'6", but my waist is also shorter than the shortest measurement, i.e. it sits right underneath my breasts. My crotch is long though, so my total torso length is average. Then my back is narrow, and my waist is wide. But at least I'm pattern-standard height?? Sigh. I guess we all have lots of modifications!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18413671907959074949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-42742087292258907772013-01-19T12:45:18.824-05:002013-01-19T12:45:18.824-05:00this is going to be immensely enjoyable to follow....this is going to be immensely enjoyable to follow. i truly hope it will be as enjoyable for you to make... i am quite short too (merely 5'2) and i always thought i had a short torso (it really looks like it when i look at myself i a mirror), but i never need to shorten patterns. go figure. i guess all my shortness is in my legs. well, i do always need to shorten skirts. hmm.joelle st-laurenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16950213993735838941noreply@blogger.com
