Tonia – Highly Recommended
In my book, this is another winner of a pattern. The sizing is spot on, so much so, that I was actually able to make one for Angie with only her basic measurements, as we live more than 70 miles apart. The bodice went together like a dream. I loved the boning technique given. This pattern is offered with three sleeve length options, and an optional stand up, half collar. I can honestly say that I enjoyed making this bodice. The picture to the left, shows the bodice during the construction phase. Once finished, I added 6 – 3/4″ buttons down the back, covered in red satin.
