How to add BUST DARTS for a better fit by DRAPING. 2 Linen top refashions. Trash to Staples.

Have you seen those dreaded diagonal drag lines on the front of your tops? I am sharing how you can easily correct this with a bust dart, by either draping on your self or drawing it on a pattern. Don’t worry, no full bust adjustment needed. You will also see how you can easily determine the size of the dart that will work for your body. Super practical and shown on 2 linen top refashion/re-sizing projects that will be staples.
