Hi,

Is there a rule of thumb for taking off measurements from patterns?

I have made several reed boned stays, drafted from my own patterns - thought I'd branch out, and make a 'new style', I bought the butterick B4254, adapted for my size (was gutted to discover the word of false sizing in shop bought clothes) and sat down to make.
I, being me, adapted the pattern, and put in two new lacing holes, from shoulder side of bust down across one pannel to the front. This should nto have altered anything, as I cut in for seam allowence, and it only affected that one pattern peice.

Its awful.

I am tall, so lengthened several inches. It hangs off my bust, doesnt tou8ch my wasit, and is far too short over the hip - just pushes my 'baby belly' out over the top of my jeans.

Is there a rule of thumb -bust, wasit and hip, you decress from a standard size?
I know this is probably a really stupid question, but find I cant get shop bought patterns that fit! What am I doing wrong!! I used reed to bone, as I dont know how to use metal boning! (and its what I had)...

Any advice?!!

I got this message earlier from a user, but can't quite figure out what it means. Is she accusing me of something? Google translate isn't helping me out either XD It's odd, because the user suteki'd several of my items, added me to friends and now she is brownboxed.

I had bought this dvd, Hats Off starring Mimi Weddell a couple months ago, but didn't have time to watch it yet.

"I find if people walk slowly in front of me these days, I want to kick them."

It's an interesting film. I recommend watching it. It definitely made me think,... and perhaps more importantly, reconsider what's important. Are you wasting your time...? This woman was 93 years old. Every moment is precious, because she may die at any time... right...? (because she's so old...) But we are born and we have X amount of unknown years, isn't every moment precious? It doesn't matter how old you are,... your are gradually moving towards death. (Mimi sadly died this Sept.)

Do something wonderful and look at beautiful things. Are you really spending your time the way you want to be...?

"If you don't dance, for heaven's sake, you cannot aspire.
You do not lift up from this earth."

from the website:
"Hats Off, a feature-length documentary, profiles the beauty and eccentricities of an extraordinary woman, 93-year-old actress Mimi Weddell.

With the style and grace of Katharine Hepburn, the smoky wit and wisdom of Dorothy Parker, and her own personal philosophy, "rise above it," Mimi is truly an iconic American original, rising above the mundane and difficult confines of her own daily life to reach for the stars and fulfill her dreams.

Hats Off captures the essence of this most unusual woman, named at age 90 by New York Magazine as one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in New York," whose full-time acting career began at age 65 upon the passing of her husband, and whose daily routine mocks the traditional image of old age. From grueling 14-hour days at cattle call auditions to her weekly gymnastics and dance workouts, Mimi Weddell exudes a 'can-do, will-do' attitude in the face of life's trials and tribulations, and moves through her challenges with grace, encouraging us all to be more than we are."

and now I'm going to go watch Die Hard.
