The bodice fit great, so I thought I'd do a circle skirt with horsehair. <br /><br />So my question, when I'm drafting a circle skirt, should I draft to the measurements of the waistband and then attach? No gathering needed? dolce vitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01724238633892692237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-85508549144948838992013-06-04T13:03:32.628-04:002013-06-04T13:03:32.628-04:00I'm astounded - what dedication!
