Ask any woman under 54" who sews what its like to alter existing patterns to fit her and shell give you an earful on the frustrations of using them. If the pattern fits the bust, its too big around the neck, the armholes gape, the shoulders droop and the proportions are all wrong because the pockets, collars and other details are all scaled for a taller figure. The line of Petite Plus patterns is designed for the woman who has a fine bone structure, narrow shoulders, D cup or larger bust, rounded tummy and delicious full curves everywhere! The look is classic - basic garments with clean lines to dress up or down. |
