Well its snowing here still...
A few weeks ago I was working on a muslin for dd's dance vest. The first pattern I tried was the Unique pattern sold for Highland dance, but the fit was awful. So then the new Ottobre arrived and 1/08#36 looks very similar although with a straight hem that I thought I would try it for fit. I haven't gotten the buttons, button holes or rivets on it yet, but initial fit was great - I lengthened it 4cm (due to long torso) and widened at the waist as she has a belly. I think I'll need to make a few mods so the pattern more closely matches the style of her dance vest - but its much closer than my initial muslin of the unique pattern.
