I think it has great potential on you in that lovely fabric, but agree with Karin about the waist fitting - could you also take it in a little in that centre back seam above the waist? When I make a long top that shelf thing always seems to happen unless I cut it out bigger at the side seams below the waist at the back, or add to the centre seam at the biggest part. Even when it seems to fit just fine standing up, in wear, sit to stand and bending over need more ease on me.<br />kbencohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885068563358776147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8300543955786478892.post-86968249706620692662013-02-19T22:17:43.555-05:002013-02-19T22:17:43.555-05:00Karin, you're absolutely right!

From the moment I finished this tunic I wasn't quite happy with it, I felt like a bag of potatoes! I'll try taking in the side seams and see how it looks, it can't hurt!Steph Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00049714887862407863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8300543955786478892.post-19325749089553101442013-02-19T16:44:54.227-05:002013-02-19T16:44:54.227-05:00The fabric looks nice and cosy, but somehow the fi...The fabric looks nice and cosy, but somehow the fit doesn't flatter you. It looks a little baggy through the waist. I wonder if taking in the side seams a bit would help?Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551387452771116176noreply@blogger.com
