I will admit, I haven't even finished tweaking my pattern. I can cross off "choosing your wrap-dress style" and "choosing your fabric" off the sew-along list but not the muslin.
I wonder if previously making this pattern counts as a muslin?
I tried it on back-to-front and know that I would like to lower the back neckline some. And I'm not all that keen on a centre skirt seam if I am going to wear the wrap dress front-to-back.
The biggest change that I need to do to the pattern is to remove the shoulder and waistline gathers on the front bodice piece. Oh and I would like to shorten the tie length. All from revisiting my first version. Yeah, I don't think I need to make a muslin [fingers crossed].
According to the schedule that McCall's Pattern Company has posted, it looks like I still have some time to work on the changes before we start sewing.

Once I have these changes done to my pattern pieces, I'm going to cut out my fashion fabric and I should be ready to go with sewing this up next week.
Happy Sewing!
I would count the previous make as a muslin.
ReplyDeleteGot the pattern yesterday and will be heading to the sewing room to find the right fabric in my stash to make it.
God bless.
