Sew-a-bration of Womanhood Day 6

If you're looking for the giveaway and link-up parties for our Sew-a-bration of Womanhood you can find them here.


It's day 6 of the Shaffer Sisters and my Sew-a-bration of Womanhood series.  Up today I have April from Modern Handmade.  We gave all of the contributors a general questionnaire and here are a few of April's responses:


Age: 36
Body Type: I'm rocking the pear shape!
What was the biggest challenge with this project: Getting the fit (almost) perfect.  I used a pattern from the 1970's and it only came in one size.  And it was around two sizes too big.  I needed to adjust the bust darts and the width and still try to keep it true to the style.  I made three muslins to get the fit just right.  There was a lot of trial and error and I finally decided that it looked good, started cutting into the good fabric and I'm so happy with how it turned out!
