My Peony muslin
Well, it is appropriate that this week's topic is on fit because I could definitely use some help with the fit of my Peony wearable muslin! But first let me warn you: this is not a Halloween costume. I ordered some fabric online that was a dark gray color. When I received my order, the fabric was a blueish doctor scrub looking color.
I was bummed that I didn't order a swatch, but whatever, I got over it and decided that I knew what to use for a wearable muslin. A month went by and when I was about to begin cutting I realized that they sent the wrong fabric!!^&%*%#!! I barely had enough to eeek out the dress and definitely did not have enough for the belt :(
No, my name is not Doctor Crayola Creepy!
Don't wear heels on the grass while taking pictures of your scrub dress! You will sink in the mud!
The fit feels fine in the waist, but is a little baggy on top. The horizontal wrinkles on the sides are pretty prominent, so I'm thinking that shortening the bodice a bit may help. What do you think?
It's not too late to sew along with us!
