StyleArc Cold Shoulder Top
It took 3 tries, but I finally got this to fit. I suspect the first two fabrics didn't have enough stretch in them, and there is no indication in the StyleArc instructions or fabric requirements as to how much stretch is needed. No surprise there!!

Here is how I cut it:
neck & shoulders.....size 16
bust & below ...........size 18
I THINK! (must start recording while fresh in mind)
Adjustments for next time:
1. could do a small FBA
2. although you can't see it in photos, the upper back-sleeve area gapes a bit and I could see taking out about 1" tapering to nothing in shoulder seam.
This fabric has 4 way stretch with about 50% crosswise and I bought it at the Loft in downtown LA while visiting my daughter and son in law for pennies. So excited, going back in May-ish!!!
Don't know if I'll make again, how many cold shoulders do you need and I'm sure this fab will expire as soon as I've made up a bunch of them!!
