Peggy, while I totally agree one can not take a dart in CF to lower a neckline, the fact that the person may want to close the neckline at some point she won’t be able to because it’s too high. Why not explain how to lower the neckline style in case that what she wanted? That’s my understanding of what she was really asking. Thanks.
Peggy, on the pants pattern, I think the sewer is looking at the lengthening/shortening lines below the waist (on the pattern paper) and doesn't understand them. They are for depth of the crotch, not the leg length. I'm here yelling add to the bottom of the leg!! So easy. Another thing is that cutting a pant 4inches on each piece makes it impossible to get it right. It is too much to handle. If you do the math, adding half an inch to the front left and right sides and the same amount to the back left and right sides that is 4 times one half inch which totals, 2 inches and that is a lot! I know you know this. I'm explaining how a new sewer thinks.
Thank you Peggy. I appreciate all the info you give. And happy birthday to your son, and many happy and healthy returns.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your Team! Thank you for All you do for the Sewing Community! Your kindness and knowledge is Awesome!😊😊
the photo of larger waist to smaller leg was very helpful. Thanks.

Should have done that also...thanks for that.....will put it up for next time...thanks again.
I like that bias equals fullness… I added on side on a knit top and I did not like it…I will remember that…thanks!
