Interesting detail. Would have been fun to have someone around for fitting help! It's so hard to see what's going on or what will change if you pin this or pull that. I try really hard to remember LDC - length, depth, circumference. But then I can never remember if D or C comes after L. Apparently it makes a difference!<br /><br />ggMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301526396026815132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21513612.post-11865418124286134542014-04-17T10:23:16.124-04:002014-04-17T10:23:16.124-04:00So very pretty!

Usually it is just a matter of adjusting the front piece to the proper width and then adjusting under the arm. The same with the back princess seam. I wish I was there to help you, 4 muslins is too much you poor thing, but I like the dress!Out My windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456481267171643227noreply@blogger.com
