I have gathered more information on swinging those darts and slashing and spreading. But now I need to take the cesear salad to my son's birthday party! I'll be back to explain more on this process, not how to have a party but moving bodice darts around.
Picture to the right shows how once the darts are swung (top image to the neckline, bottom image to bust point) the pattern is slashed then spread for the gathers. Need to find the picture of what this looks like when sew together.

Your blog is wonderful
ReplyDeleteHow clever you are!
I love the vintage patterns, I used to sew when I was younger and loved it, sort of got out of it now, don't think I have the patience to even thread a needle!
I'll look forward to seeing what else you've been up to
