Am just working my way through my first FBA to try and improve fitting issues concern the ladies - so far, so good! I hope this leads to more sewing for the sistas (there is totally a blog series in there!)deadlycrafthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12848285918829575767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846470566746088487.post-88037956551372559592012-09-10T17:50:10.519-05:002012-09-10T17:50:10.519-05:00oh my gosh -- it's gorgeous!!!

I'm scared of both! lol<br /><br />I have the same problem as you do (which leads me to wanting to make my own clothing) with the large boobs. Your top has given me some much needed courage!
