Simplicity 9714ArcCut out at size 2, copied size 3 just in case. Made blouse, very easy.
SimplicityArcFactory uncut. Going to photocopy for cutting out 2, want to keep 3 an option also.
Made size 2 for a 1 year old, perfect.
Simplicity 1450AArcLonger top cut by prev owner to 1, but saved margins. I cut shorter top to 2 (except in length), didn’t save margins. Bias tape binding for neck and armholes.
Made 3, very easy and fun.
