How did it go Sarvi?

Masha Richart replied to the topic Bust darts in the forum liesl + co: bistro dress 9 years ago
Did you taper off the edge of the dart slowly and tie the ends of it by hand rather than backstitching? If not, that might be the problem. Maybe if you take a photo we might be able to troubleshoot.
