How to Choose a Woven Bodice Pattern Size

Do you ever wonder what size pattern to start with for a top or shirt (i.e., a bodice) that will be made from a woven fabric? And what size should you choose if your figure's proportions at the bust, waist, and hip are not the same as the patterns? Rather than using the size chart on the pattern envelope, Sarah shows you how to use the pattern's finished garment measurements when choosing the pattern size(s). Plus, she shows you how to blend between sizes so your seam and cut lines make smooth transitions.

For information on tops that will be made from knit fabrics, please see Sarah's video "How to Choose a Knit Bodice Pattern Size."
