I'm excited to get a chance to really sit down and work on this project- I've started to play around with draping my pieces, which is how I'll start the patterning process. I love the whole problem solving process that goes along with draping/patterning, though sometimes it can be a bit frustrating, it's definitely worth it in the end because you know you did everything from start to finish.
I don't think I'll have any problems with not having enough fabric- the shirt I bought is size 3X, and the skirt will probably have to be taken in. I'm wondering if I should change the bottom of the dress because I was planning to make trim from the knit dress, but I don't think the fabric will lay the way I want it to so I might have to think about a different way I can use that fabric. I would really like to keep it in the design because the colors really help tie everything together since they miraculously match the colors in trim of the black top. I've been thinking about making a scarf or some sort of accessory out of the fabric. We'll see what ends up happening...
