Date: 3/11/13 5:20 PM Do you always need to put in a center back seam with an upper back curve or can you some how still keep the back on the fold so you don't have a seam in the middle of you shirt? I can not seem to find an answer.
Thank you in advance ------

Date: 3/11/13 6:49 PM If you want to put the back on the fold, you need to add neck darts if it is a large adjustment. You may be able to ease in the excess fabric if the amount is small and your fabric is cooperative. ------
If you wait for the perfect time to start, you'll never start. |
