Thank you for the simple explanation of this adjustment. If you have 6 inches between upper bust and bust, can this method be used? Enlarging 3 inches? Or should it be done twice? Enlarging 1 1/2 inches and then again on the newly enlarged pattern?
@@jaynestorer5629 I struggle. I have a narrow back and shoulders and a bust, which isn’t “big” but doesn’t match the narrowness 🤷♀️🙂 …anyway I’m going to try this this week 🙂
I've been through this video and I'm still struggling with how to execute the adjustment on Simplicity 1426. It's a1950's bra top and I'm still too new to sewing too figure out how to do a FAB on my own in view A as the tutorial is on a full bodice. Any advice or suggestions for reference material would be greatly appreciated.
Basically with a FBA you are increasing the width and height of just the front panel. Even though there is no dart on that I’d still cut as I do for this bodice (using my bust point) and toile it to check fit. Seamwork.com and cashmerette.com have bra altering info available which may also help.
Thanks! This is very helpful. Are there instances where you choose NOT to make a full bust adjustment? Like if you think there is enough ease in the pattern or something?
The best yet!!!
Thank you!

You can do it all at once.
@@SussexSeamstress Thank you
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Am I correct, that the waist of the skirtfront must be altered to the new measurement: 6 cm wider?
Yes, that’s correct. You could add a dart or take in a little at the side seams.
@@SussexSeamstress thanks for your immediate reply!
Ŕeally helpful thanks.

Thank you. This is so clear.
Glad to hear it Sue.

Yes. As long as the darts meet the apex and there is enough fabric i would probably not bother.
Ooh and you need the length over the bust too.
Thank you 👍
You’re welcome
Thank you, it all makes sense now.
Glad it was helpful
