Man, it was a long process too, but totally worth it mostly because I know more about fitting now. <br />Your gingham Peony is very sweet!Paolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472129226320589172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5235536061632426604.post-12382036988830380672013-08-12T12:47:27.406+10:002013-08-12T12:47:27.406+10:00Pretty!

I had nightmares fitting the Peony, but it was worth it in the end as I now use that bodice to fit any pattern with the four-dart setup. How much difference did all the pinning out make - wow! And barring you wanting that delicious gingham to be a little heavier - the end result is gorgeous :)poppykettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089242289854891320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5235536061632426604.post-68683516600216902412013-08-12T06:20:33.961+10:002013-08-12T06:20:33.961+10:00That is a super fitting dress now - and you have t...That is a super fitting dress now - and you have the pattern to use again and again (the style really suits you!)

I did a fitting class on Craftsy and I am currently attempting to put what I have learned into practice on a fitted outfit I am making for my nephew's wedding next month.Sew, Jean Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02820699938403952341noreply@blogger.com
