Fit is something I am learning a lot about right now, of which I never had to learn when I sewed for my girls... as they just grew so fast, the 'fit' wasn't a big deal! Great point... 'body changes'!

Yes, I often find that the first garment is just the start of working out what to do, and how to fit - and the process continues. While the body also continues to change!Sarah Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566072246120028926[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-69741886173723433112014-04-04T21:13:50.150-04:002014-04-04T21:13:50.150-04:00It's just amazing how much time these "li...It's just amazing how much time these "little" repairs can take, isn't it? There are times when (so few people seem to know how to sew anymore and everyone knows I can sew) someone asks me very nicely to just _________ (insert whatever they need modified on a garment) for them and I have to bite my tongue, smile and say, "Sure." Four hours later . . . :o)<br /><br />I think it's a wonder any garment either home made or purchased fits any of us. I mean look at all our different shapes!! One size does not fit all even if we've made it from a correctly sized pattern that we can adjust while making it. I think you did a great job of modifying this pretty top of yours.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-80270266454321252472014-04-04T20:40:37.974-04:002014-04-04T20:40:37.974-04:00It is such a pretty blouse-I am glad you coukd &qu...It is such a pretty blouse-I am glad you coukd " make it work".<br />Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03517527498809073174[email protected]
