@lightningmcstitch as per instructions and with an overlocker. It is knit fabric fron spotlight – jersey it said- but it has like zero stretch and the neckband turned out rediculous!

Yay😀 At least you finally are having some success! I discovered that doing a traditional fba doesn’t warrant for accommodating a larger than normal bicep so I need to redraft the front of the gallery tunic so the armscye can actually match the sleeve – i need two tops by tomorrow morning!

Finally got the bathers top fitted 🙂 It works very well. Worth it but tedious and frustrating!

What a bummer that it doesn’t fit. He measures an 8, but the 10 is too tight across the chest? Or is it that you were looking for a shirt long enough to tuck in? Length is pretty easy to add but if you fear the 12 will be tightly fitted across the chest, adding width might be a bit trickier.

Sarvi, of course you can! The more the merrier😀

D’oh! Were we not supposed to reveal, yet? I can make another!

I sometimes use tailor’s tacks and sometimes use tailor’s chalk. Depending on the fabric, they can both work.

I sense your frustration levels @withloveHeidi. I cut out two metro tshirts – one women’s size small and a men’s size xs. Started sewing the men’s xs in what I thought was knit fabric with 25% stretch – my foot😤😖 and what the HECK did I do to the neckline???? Oh how I do NOT LIKE SEWING WITH STRETCH FABRICS😭😡

I put the Swimsuit aside and sewed up a dolls Tea Pary dress and playsuit! No fitting, much appreciated 🙂
