Instruction at:<br /><br />www.fashion-incubator.com/archive/saran_wrap_pattern_making_method_2/<br /><br />Keep in mind that this produce a sloper without any ease. She does mention that she grades up 1 size to get the best fitting ease. I've never tried it so can't vouch for it. <br /><br />Getting wearing ease right is the bane of my sewing existence. I made a dummy using a similar technique called Duct Tape Double (www.leanna.com/DuctTapeDouble/) and made a few garments which fits Big Bertha, my DTD twin perfectly, but I can't breathe nor sit nor even go to the toilet in those garments.

I only remembered all this - because I'd saved that pattern in the 'Purchase History' of my BS account (it get's saved there even though the pattern is free). <br /><br />P.S. I've just downloaded the pattern again from my account to check - and it's all okay :)! <b><i>After selecting 'Get It Now' button on the patterns' webpage (http://www.burdastyle.com/patterns/flynow-top-pleated-culottes), and then going to the Purchase History in their BS account, you need to find the 'flynow top & pleated culottes' in your list of purchases - and the file people need to select to download is the 'Print Pattern at Home' button. You will then download a file called 'home.pdf' and that is the sloper !!!</i></b>Claire (aka Seemane)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05175575205044308437noreply@blogger.com
