It's a good one and is very popular. For some reason I had a hard time really getting in to it. Maybe I need to look at it again.<br /><br />Eugenia--- I've seen the stuff you make, I think we have the same skill level. You're pretty experience yourself (wink)!<br /><br />Sister--- I'm thinking about getting a custom made dressform from Andy's Dressforms in NYC. You should google it and check it out. You can give them your measurements and they'll create your body double. I've heard good things about them!Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15055410123914346485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-54186347896716486282010-05-03T09:19:23.003-07:002010-05-03T09:19:23.003-07:00Thanks for the info!

I want to do a duct tape one, but until then I'll measure my back and compare like you suggested.Dr. Fun (AKA Sister)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07332652703590699186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-13265208595979918412010-05-03T03:07:47.952-07:002010-05-03T03:07:47.952-07:00Thanks for a great post.

Getting the fit right is so important but not always easy so I always love to read advice from experienced sewists, like yourself, on this subject.Eugeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07584571701550775408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-91907533915207016322010-05-02T11:04:15.769-07:002010-05-02T11:04:15.769-07:00Great post!

I cannot believe the importance of darts!! <br /><br />And I think "high derriere" sounds like a nice adjustment to have to make :-)K.Linehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350615302797686048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-39925471690338786962010-05-02T06:52:38.232-07:002010-05-02T06:52:38.232-07:00Thank you so much so this Victoria, as a beginner ...Thank you so much so this Victoria, as a beginner sewer i'm sooo hungry for knowledge on everything that has anything to do with sewing, especially fitting issues. And following blogs of some of you advanced sewers i always wonder how you learned so much. So thanks for sharing, much appreciated!Brankahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01853151883606096742noreply@blogger.com
