Here's my frankenpattern solution: Opinions? Thoughts? Ideas? Warnings? Here there be Dragonnes? ;)

Just do a first draft in muslin to make sure the band is right and it fits together as you want. Bet your version will look better than the store's. :) ------ Kit "Never underestimate the power of the right dress!" - drsue "Hyu gots to know how to sveet tok de costumers, dollink" - Girl Genius, 11-24-08
