It looks like the bubbles you have now are from the bottom of the invisible zipper.<br />Have you sewn both side of the bottom to the sas? This helps. The really hard part is matching your crossing seams which you have done really well. Let it be, no one, but no one except another compulsive sewer will notice.<br />The dress is beautiful and fits you really well and it's flattering.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-47530697141449093132009-08-08T07:19:09.497-05:002009-08-08T07:19:09.497-05:00Beautiful dress.

I am working on Simplicity 3956 (view d, with the straps) and very frustrated with not only the bias/zipper/back thing, but also fitting the bodice on my small chest! There always seems to be something, huh? <br /><br />Thanks for all of your inspiration. :-)Karen Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01240731397971220290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-74966036866131215992009-08-07T22:05:35.820-05:002009-08-07T22:05:35.820-05:00I honestly didn't notice the wrinkles in the f...I honestly didn't notice the wrinkles in the first dress until you pointed them out.
