I know what I do but I am not sure what it is called….
I stitch a small stitch into the sash ( 2mm) and that goes to a longer running stitch in the dress lining (1 cm), pulling so it is firm but does not pucker.
I will see if I can find a picture for you.

Absolutely Rebecca.
I would lay the bodice with the skirt and cut as one piece.
I have a tute here if you would like an idea of how it goes together.http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2012/08/you-cant-make-that-pattern-up-in-that.html

Hugo managed to get some rice cereal into trixie so she slept all evening instead of me feeding all evening
I got the trousers and skirt made and a Continental blouse made up to setting in the sleevesI prewashed some lawn to make another trial run for husbands Liberty shirt. He has lost weight so the last one is too baggy now

I have used blind cord before and that works well. I had some on hand from making roman blinds and it was just the right size.

Leggings made and another hopscotch from the jegging scraps
I was able to cut a late lunch and a continental blouse from the linen
While doing some sorting I found some cut Capri pants and a black skirt from when the twins were babies
If I leave the front darts off I think they may still fit me
Fingers crossed -
