March 10, 2006, Newsletter Issue #38: Accurate Measurements

Tip of the Week

You must have accurate measurements to select the correct size pattern. It is almost impossible to take precise measurements for yourself. Measurements should be taken in a good fitting bra and underwear. Use a good tape measure that has been checked for accuracy. The tape measure should be snug, but not tight. Do not add inches for looser fit, this is added in the design ease of the pattern.
