  2. Very cute! I wasn't sure this one needed an FBA due to all the gathering in front. You could just not pull it up as tightly. I have the pattern but haven't made it yet. Thanks for the helpful hints.

  4. I'm about to make this pattern in a woven fabric and will need to make a FBA and then manage to draw in the fabric: big boobs, small ribcage, worst combo ever. So I very much appreciate your review and photos. Thank you!
