First Up Vogue 7283 - Take Four

Here is Take 1, Take 2, and Take 3.

Ok, here is the second muslin. I used two different prints of cotton. Looks kind of funny. This time I took 1.5" out of the front, sewed the princess seams deeper, and lower the neckline. I think that the next time, I will leave the princess seams alone (notice the weird bust wrinkle now?) and take some extra fabric out of the side seams. I shortened the raglan dart but that just made the point shoulder seam pointy-er-er. Next I will cut into my fashion fabric and hope for the best. I'm not sure what I will use.

All the fabrics are just remnants.

The zipper looks so funny because I am using an old metal zipper and the fabric kept getting stuck in it. So I ironed the fabric open. From this view, it look like I could take some more out of the back too; right above my ample posterior.
