If you don’t want the placket or collar, to create a V . Would you interface and apply a bias to the raw seam? (Like the sleeveless version)?
"these pattern pieces are shrunk down to 25%" ah, exactly the size I always use, nice! haha
My very first thought was what a lovely pattern for a Bewitched type costume. Of course at my age I look more like Endora then Samantha. lol
I can see Wednesday Addams in something like this if using the right fabric!! Hmm...
love the Grace Bodice, but how are you to make a jumpsuit? I think it will look good with the Elsa culottes, but I cant see how you can get it on if you have a side zip.
Ha, great point! I would split the bodice and collar up the back to make a back zipper opening. It would take some work, maybe better to just make a separate peplum blouse and pants :)
With my new job taking up my free time, I’m a few patterns behind…however… I am pushing this one to the front of my pile and going to take advantage of this holiday weekend 😍😍😍
Oh IT'S PERFECT!!
