After the wadder I just posted I am now a happy camper, really recommend trying this pattern if it's your style. I did still slipstitch it together at the crossover just in case.
Other than the lining issue it was easy to put together, I cut a 38 at the shoulders and waist, blending out to a 40 at the bust and hips which along with the front extension shown above gave me a decent fitting bodice which I am sure I will use again. handstitch remaining unsewn bodice lining to skirt lining and lining edges to zip.insert skirt lining to seam allowances of skirt/bodice seam just sewn.finish rest of main fabric skirt/bodice seam.stitched main fabric of skirt to bodice for only about an inch either side of the zip side seam.kept lining and bodice separate at zip side seam.Here is what I did for the record, I am certain there is a better way (centre back zip?, draft a separate 1 piece front lining? If anyone knows the answer please shout out in the comments.) The lining gave me a bit of trouble with the wrapover fronts since they are separately lined and I hacked a way to get the inside looking halfway decent.
I also lined the skirt for the same reason. BurdaStyle Magazine Oct 2011 Issue Anonymous says: Maat 2. The original has a self lined bodice, I used a lightweight cotton since my fabric was just very slightly see through. June 20 April 2014 March 2014 February 2014 January 2014 December 2013.
