I find that often the ease is so extensive that I can drop a size or two! I love your fabric choice for this dress.

Glad you took the time to do so -- imagine how disappointed you'd have been with the finished dress, otherwise! I like the intricate piecing on that bodice. Am not patient enough, myself, to mess with it, so I salute you for doing it and showing it LinBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15999430801003441981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-17532770904731844012012-04-29T23:31:13.254+02:002012-04-29T23:31:13.254+02:00there is no way you are a 16 you look a lot smalle...there is no way you are a 16 you look a lot smaller, so I am actually not surprised.

The multi sized patterns often don't have both of the sizes I need on the same pattern! I basically need a 12 on top and an 18 on bottom. It seems Vogue can't even imagine a body like mine!Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551387452771116176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-74901805029909507162012-04-29T20:46:42.783+02:002012-04-29T20:46:42.783+02:00Well, maybe it's the pattern size you are buyi...Well, maybe it's the pattern size you are buying. I buy a 16 by the upper bust measurement and I carry a lot more weight than you do! Of course I make a sizable fba. What's your upper bust measurement? Considering that you took in 5" You probably need to go down 2 sizes and add to the hips.<br />I like how it looks once you pinned out the excess. It a flattering shape for you.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-48408790261420780292012-04-29T15:57:01.517+02:002012-04-29T15:57:01.517+02:00Ah yes, this seems to be a problem that plagues me...Ah yes, this seems to be a problem that plagues me - the amount of ease they build in is insane.tigergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09229270869667028807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-82841988194691331562012-04-29T15:25:47.731+02:002012-04-29T15:25:47.731+02:00The fabric is lovely.
