I would abandon this project, donate the garment, and move on to another style that will suit your fabric.patsijeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362426384481772370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33215142.post-77418067065353572512009-05-03T06:30:00.000-07:002009-05-03T06:30:00.000-07:00Don't waste anymore time on this pattern, it's not...Don't waste anymore time on this pattern, it's not the one for you and definitely not the pattern you should use on cherished fabric.<br />It's too short for you by at least another inch, I agree about the neckline being too high for you, there's something wrong with the sleeves and the overall shape does nothing for you.<br /><br />Find a fabulous pattern for the fabulous white fabric.

Don't make another, at least until you love this one! lol<br /><br />I'd scoop out a lower neckline and add a facing or bind it with a different fabric. And take Birgitte's advice and shorten or fold up the sleeves. Or take Myra's advice and wear it open over a camisole.goodworks1https://www.blogger.com/profile/02967943973600981509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33215142.post-66294706639541314572009-05-02T18:29:00.000-07:002009-05-02T18:29:00.000-07:00I agree with the others, use yoru special fabric f...I agree with the others, use yoru special fabric for another garment.

You may be able to salvage this one, but I wouldn't make another. I'm sure you're like most of us and have a zillion patterns.

As Birgitte said, roll up the sleeves and I would use it open, like a jacket, which it appears to be, with a camisole underneath, something with a lace center to soften the look.Myrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16163175961766563965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33215142.post-39143598402469961522009-05-02T13:25:00.000-07:002009-05-02T13:25:00.000-07:00I agree.

This does not do you justice, Nancy. You need a more feminine style; open neckline, soft bodice. Also, because the sleeves and hem are near identical in length, it creates a boxy look, Where's your lovely waist?<br />My opinion; don't make this again. If you want to wear this one, try tucking it in, or roll up the sleeves, and open that top button :))Birgittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13085707175735448759noreply@blogger.com
