Fit And Sew Clothes That Fit You Perfectly

McCall 6120 Nicely fitted

I love to see how the ladies on this forum grow in their fitting skills.

Marisa sewed 2 tops from M6120, and she did a awesome job.

Here is a little bit of her fitting journey in her own words:

I measured my high bust which is 31 inches, so I suppose I will be using size 8, like you in one of your videos.
I will iron the pattern again and I will cut it after you confirmed my size. Which video is the right one for me?
I’m making top m6120. (she used video 5 from the 3rd sew-along series)

The neighbor is very nice and she took some photos of me. She said the pattern is too small, I have to take at
least two sizes bigger. I said to her: “You don’t know Patricia, she makes great clothes out of small patterns!”

I have sewed my top without sleeves. It is so hot now, that I like it the way it is. It is made with the remnant
of the fabric I used for my other top. The collar was the difficult part for me to do, but Patricia gave me a good
tip and now, I am glad the way it looks. I wore it to a party and I like how the fabric is soft on the skin.

Patricia,
when I ordered the pattern for the 1st of July, my husband said to me that it wouldn’t fit me at all.
I should wear something without horizontal cuts. Normally he is right, but this time I wanted to work with
this pattern and to do the changes like the other girls here.
When I sent the pictures of my top to him, he answered:”Great! You look nice in that top! I like it!”

I wouldn’t have tried to do that top without this Forum. Yes, the midfitt is right where I wanted it to be. (Like magic!)
Everything is the way it should be. I’m happy
