Step 3 - Create a pattern from the shirt

It's always scary cutting something apart that you've worked hard on, in order to continue a project. Yes, I need to do this, but, yes, it's a bit scary.

Here is the fitting shell cut apart, without seam allowances.  I find this fascinating.

Now that I've done that, I'm going to do one last muslin, to make sure I've fit the thing the way I want to. This initial fit cycle is so important, if I don't do this well, I'll be quite unhappy with my final product.

Same pieces in paper, still no seam allowances.

I didn't get this published over the weekend, so here it goes!  More soon!
