Regarding pattern vogue 1140 for a 32 DDD bust. Since the pattern has a front and side front seam, you make the same adjustments as you would on any princess seam. If you have my book Fast Fit, it tells you how to do this but I will try to describe here. On the CF panel, add 1 inch horizontally all the way across the pattern at the place on the pattern with the most extreme curve. On the side front panel, cut the pattern apart horizontally in the same area, leaving a hinge at eh side seam where the adjustment will go to zero so that it can join the SB.. Spread the SF apart like a big mouth, spreading it 1 inch to match up the with amount on the CF. Make up the pattern in scrap fabric, starting with a size B pattern. Make sure that you add 1 inch fit insurance on side seams only so that you can let them out if necessary. Good luck. It may take a bit of trial and error but the top is awesome and worth the extra effort. sandra b

My daughter wants to make this pattern but she is a 32DDD. How does she adjust the curves so she gets a good fit on this cute top?
