Early on Friday, a friend of mine helped me take all my measurements. According to the drafting book i'm using, I need about two dozen measurements. My friend was through and we got some good measurements. However, I think we made a wrong turn somewhere when it came to establishing my waistline. You see, my actual waist is right up under my boobs, so we determined that using a measurement around my belly button would be a lot more reasonable (Otherwise I get a back length measurement of something stupid like 10 inches). Anyway, as you can see from my pic above, something went seriously wrong. You will not be seeing the pics of me wearing my muslin. The armholes are bigger than the sleeve, which is odd, to say the least. However, it feels fairly comfortable in the back and shoulders, so I might actually have something to work with here. I may revisit this in a day or two.
