ForestGreen Where are you planning to buy the pattern? I would actually go into an independent fabric store to buy it, hopefully the staff there would know what they're doing a little more than say the people at Joanne's. Ask questions. It might depend on how the top and skirt are made and the fullness of the skirt. I'd look for princess seams at the waistline or darts that could be merged. Luckily the pattern envelope usually has depictions of the individual pattern pieces. You could use dressmaker's tracing paper to merge the patterns once you figure out if they can be merged.
Thank you! I think that this pattern should work, as does my mom, but i'm very, very, very worried about it -not- working. Because i don't want a two piece prom dress.
I pretty much have two choices for fabric stores: Hancocks and Joannes. In my experiance, hancocks has been more knowledgable, and more patient. Aslo, they've never gotton on my case about asking questions and then saying that i wasn't going to buy the pattern today or anything like that. Joanne's gets pissy if i look around, ask questions, and then when they ask if i'd like them to cut fabric, tell them that i have to wait till my mom brings me in. sweatdrop
