Although my face ;-P may not show it, I’m kinda in two minds about this tester. I wanted something simple, that fit right, straight out of the envelope.
Simplicity 3827 is specifically designed for D cups, I cut a size larger than RTW, yet its tight … too tight for comfort in a woven I reckon. And it kinda doesn’t hit in the right places, it likely needs a full bust adjustment (come on, I’m not that full that I should need an FBA on an FBA)a sway back adjustment (OK, true) and yep, a zip, some hems and binding round the neck.
I don’t feel like all that work at the moment, I just want to sew up some simple things on the new machine … might flick through some old burdas tonight, see if I get inspired
