Here goes nothing, version 2

I'm a little more encouraged, because this one doesn't look quite so odd.



After re-checking my measurements it turns out I had the measurement from high shoulder point to waist wrong by about four inches. I'm not sure what I did wrong when taking it the first time. So we'll see how this one goes. I'll probably try to sew a muslin from it tomorrow. I hope Amanda doesn't reduce a full grade for late work. :)

I was really confused by the length thing. It said high shoulder point to waist (I believe), but who wants their shirt to end at the waist?! Not me, that's who. Good luck! No late marks, I'm going to be late too :)

@Amanda - I had the waist FOUR inches too high because of that first mistake. You can imagine how that increased the weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth over the whole boobs at the armpit thing. The breast line practically overlapped the waistline! I added four to both the waist "down point" and the length. I'm hoping that works.

@KID - thanks! That's what gives me so much hope this time. :)
