Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Blue lace top, I had to add side panels to shirt, the pattern was too big in the bust but too small around the waist. I am getting very frustrated with pattern, obviously not suitable to my body type!!!
Material Notes
Not sure what the fabric is, it was very thing. Lace to cover trim, thread and seam bidding.

Good work, considering you had to alter it a lot! I think your problem is, that your hips size is bigger than bust size… right? In that case altering the pattern between the size line could work for you… I haven’t tried it myself yet, but I saw this suggestion in a book, and tried to explain it very roughly some time ago in this forum post.
