customizing the layette: sleeveless bodysuit tutorial

Hope that helps.

Can you copy the length and line below the armpits from another pattern? Unless you’re using a tiny size then the Family Reunion could help.

It’s worth trying it first with a less precious fabric (I know, I’m no fun either!). I’ve made the shirt into a tunic a couple of times by adding a 3-4″ peplum at the bottom. While I liked the A-line, loose-fitting look, it is a flared style, and if you just extended the side seam lines down a further 6 inches, it would end up very wide.…[Read more]
