For the torso, I traced view B version of the Strasbourg Henley, grading from Medium at the bust to Large at the hips. Typically, I remove two inches from top length to adjust for my height (5\u20190\u201d), but I chose not to do this so my top would hit at high hip instead of being cropped style as intended by the pattern.<\/p>\n<p>For the lower half, I traced the mini version (short) of the Garibaldi skirt in size 14 without any length modifications, so the nightdress length hits at the knee for me. At the upper edge of the skirt, I followed the curve of the Strasbourg Henley hem and used the side seam edge, continuing the curve to blend with the skirt side seam edge. It was as easy as that!<\/p>\n<p>You can see from the pictures for both front and back pieces where and how I added to the pattern. The original Garibaldi skirt patterns are under.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_80320\" style=\"max-width: 760px;\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-80320\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-760x1013.jpeg\" alt=\"Tissue paper lying on top of a pattern.\" width=\"760\" height=\"1013\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-760x1013.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-500x667.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-768x1024.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image0-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Skirt front modifications<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_80319\" style=\"max-width: 760px;\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-80319\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-760x1013.jpeg\" alt=\"Close up showing where patterns are coming together.\" width=\"760\" height=\"1013\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-760x1013.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-500x667.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image1-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Skirt back modifications<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I just taped both patterns touching each other while cutting my fabric, so I just had one continuous center fold and curved side seam edge.
