bit slow on the uptake I know - but yes - just downloaded it - YAY :)

Thank you for the site H.

hello I also spoke very little English! the waist and wearing a large button closure. the bottom is thus taking a rectangle of fabric and fold in half to put a thick elastic thing and then it gives bowling well!

hola yo tambien hablo muy poco ingles! la cintura lleva un boton grande y un cierre. la parte inferior se hace de esta forma tomas un rectangulo de tela y al doblarlo por la mitad colocas un elastico grueso luego lo coses y asi da los bolados!

Hello nehmah,

Thanks for leaving a message on my wall ... now I really feel like I am part of the BurdaStyle community! It is a great place to "hang around" actually, I'm enjoying it immensely. You mentioned you'd only been here since October 2007, but the site was only created in early 2007 as I understand it, so by my lights, that makes you a "veteran"!

Thanks for the encouragement

The pattern is back. Have fun ;-) Best regards.

Thanks for the notes on the Jocelyn pattern! I don't know anything about grading patterns, and I didn't do any of the pattern drafting so I'm not sure what will technically happen when it's regraded. You'll have to check with the BurdaStyle folks since they did all of the hard work.

Design-wise, it's a very basic shape, so I think it should look good at a wide range of sizes. Best of luck!

Thanks for your comment on my revision of the Jessica bikini. I will think of you as I'm sipping a pina colada on the beach, wearing my new bikini.

yeas i got the pattern problem solved thank you for asking

Hi! thanks for your comment on my skirt! The line goes all around the garment. To draft perfect lines, you may use french curves (you can find sets ranging from £5 to £25)I will try to post the pattern. Perhaps, I have to undo the skirt now, my pattern drafting skills are unexistant but I am learning. In the process of the destruction I will take pictures, I will use them for my instruction (reversing the order of the pictures of course. I will try to draft several sizes also but before this I need a holiday... Have a great summer!
