The Second Muslin

 Since I now have a corrected pattern, I can create the second muslin.  It's put together exactly the same way that the first, but  with slightly different shapes.  Giving the bodice princess seams eliminates the darts.  Putting two curves together can create the same shape, but without the seemingly out of place darts.  Gina and I have a fitting tomorrow afternoon, and we shall see how it fits!  We are going to look at the fit, and see how the bottom of the piece is.  See if it is now long enough, and if it is - getting the shape correct.  Once the bodice piece is complete, the next step would be to work on the skirt part - much more complicated.

Thanks! I think the hardest part is going to be the skirt part with the train. We'll see how it goes!
