They have had surgery twice in the last month.<br />I have similar proportions and spend more time tweaking new patterns. I start with a 16 for the top and go down in sizes to a 10 or 12 for the hips. I a just glad I can sew forget trying to buy rtw.<br />Anyone want rain.

Wherever we ...Betsy, that is an excellent comment. Wherever we are most out of proportion is key. I read on PR someone else found a Style Arc jacket pattern too small for her. It was a different jacket than mine and she had purchased based on her upper bust measurement, I think. She said she should have purchased based on her back measurement. That would have been good for me, I think, except I did have to take in the hips quite a bit. It's the challenge of my figure - I don't blame Style Arc. My bust, waist, and hips are really different sizes and it's a tradeoff.shamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070023218199309005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-22711393182718646622011-07-24T06:19:08.353-07:002011-07-24T06:19:08.353-07:00Shams thanks for your take on the StyleArc jacket....Shams thanks for your take on the StyleArc jacket. I'm having the exact issue with the Katherine pants - I should have bought the size 14 instead of the 10 and taken them in above the crotchline. Just too many alterations to fit, and I can't believe they are supposed to look like this. And I should know better. I should have told Chloe my thigh circumference when I asked her about a size recommendation, as that's my most out-of-proportion measurement.BetsyVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14824251716471351275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-14115995176755099252011-07-24T05:21:22.806-07:002011-07-24T05:21:22.806-07:00Shams, thanks for the info on Style Arc -- I had n...Shams, thanks for the info on Style Arc -- I had not heard of them!

Maybe they'll turnout to be unexpectedly useful for some kinds of seams.<br /><br />I can't wait to see your Style Arc jacket. I'm very curious about those patterns -- and "Shams meets anything" is well worth viewing!Noilehttp://www.noile.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-44594792524853470132011-07-24T02:03:40.940-07:002011-07-24T02:03:40.940-07:00I'm always happy to enable. ;)I'm always happy to enable. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-64814222468024091952011-07-24T02:02:51.229-07:002011-07-24T02:02:51.229-07:00Thanks for the mention. :)Thanks for the mention. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
