The dress went together fairly well except when they say it runs big, it runs big! I cut out a 14 but ended up taking it in a good inch on both sides. I really needed to take it up in the shoulders but had already put the facings on based on the construction order so it was too late. I was NOT picking apart facings! I'll just wear a camisole underneath or else it'll be borderline obscene. I'm finishing it tonight to wear to a holiday party. I'll post pictures soon.
Lesson learned...even if difficult to do so I should pin the dress together on me prior to putting on the facings. I should know better being so short waisted that it's likely I'll need to take up the shoulders...doh!
