Last week I took a fitting class with Rae and Karen where I learned some basic tips for bodice fitting. Most importantly for me was how to move the dart. After adjusting the Washi Dress pattern we made a "test" top. Here's mine.
I used some fabric that I had in my stash and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. After making adjustments to the pattern, the top/dress goes together pretty quickly.
I also like the shirring in the back - no zipper!
I'm going to make a few more adjustments to the pattern and make another.
