I have had the SWAP plan written out in text for a while, but decided
today to draw it up and use the coloured pencils to give myself an idea
of what it might look like.
I wonder if this might be the year that I actually manage to sew up the whole SWAP as per the plan? I have all the fabric for this, and it seems pretty achievable.
Admittedly
I have never used the Vogue pattern before and Vogue and I have not
always got along too well in the past, so I need to do some serious
testing first. I think these days I have a better grip of my various
wedge shaped alterations which are not usually found in the simpler
books on alterations, but have made a HUGE difference to how my home
sewn clothing fits me.
So I shall approach the Vogue pattern with
realistic measurements and parts of various TNT patterns. I will make up
some test garments before attempting them for the SWAP.
Let's see how I get on.

Great plans - good luck
Looks to be a very manageable plan and the colours are very you. Good luck with the vogue. If you flat measure first to check amount of alteration required, and do your usual back alterations you should be fine.
534erKaFreLooks like a lovely swap Ruthie and great colours.
That looks great! I'm stuck in the planning stage but now that I've seen how you've organized your SWAP I'm getting a better idea of how to continue. Thanks for the inspiration!
