Polka Dot Perfection!

Don't you just love it when you make a ridiculous number of major pattern design and fit alterations AND THEY ALL WORK OUT?

I still need to finish the neck, arm and hem but... it all worked! I did everything I said I would in my post about the muslin... and somehow I got just enough room in the bust and belly for it to be comfortable, but still form-fitting. The length is great now. And the armhole is no longer pinching. Oh, I love it!

When I post pictures of the final and all the alterations, you'll see how little the pattern pieces still resemble the Jalie 2005 original, but it was a great starting point.

And with that... I'm off to my neighborhood farmer's market before it closes to enjoy the sunshine!
