Description

I made this dress using a bodice block and the back of the Katjusha pattern. This is my first time using a non-knit fabric…so far I’ve had issues with my large chest, but the bodice block made this a total breeze! I am in love with this dress and plan to make a few more in a similar style.

    I have a large chest as well and have been working with a bodice block as well. Your dress came out lovely and it really flatters your figure! I love seeing different style dresses on us large busted women, helps us find what looks good. :)
