This pattern is so versatile and well done. I bought it to sew a bodice for my mom. My mom is *fluffy* and does not wear a corset. We were able to fit it nicely and she looks wonderful in it! I then used it to make my little sister her first “big girl” dress. My sister is teeny tiny and wears a corset. Again, the end result was beautiful and went together easily. I highly reccomend this pattern to anyone. Beginner on up. Thanks Heather, for a great pattern! 😊

This pattern is excellent. It fit perfectly with no fit modifications on the first try using the TV sizing system. The only change I made was narrowing the sleeves, but that was a matter of personal preference. I’m really pleased with how it came out and I definitely plan on making this bodice again!

This pattern is excellent. It came together very easily and fits perfectly. I only had to make an adjustment to the front and add some fabric to the front closure. It makes a wonderful, very comfortable basic bodice and I will definitely use it for more costumes.
