FBA adjustments to pattern
carolbee Intermediate FL USA Member since 1/31/07 Posts: 69	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 4/23/12 6:48 PM I did my first muslin with FBA today--great! I found the courage to do it by reading comments on Pattern Review and looking up sites to explain. Although my measurements are 40 full bust and 38 high bust, I needed a slight adjustment and a little reduction in neckline. Works great. Am so excited to know my silk top will be just right! Thanks to all who make comments.

If you are worried about making fba - trace the pattern piece that must be adjusted, that way if you must start over, you still have the original intact

I've been buying multiple patterns ON PURPOSE (when they are 99Cents) for this reason. Duh is an understatement.
