Hi everyone
I'm thinking of coming back to dressmaking after a break. I'm fed up of the cost and quality of what you can buy in the shops.
I've had problems in the past with tops/dresses I've made, as I have to cut a larger size for my boobs (only 32F, but large compared to size 8/10 waist) and other proportions seem to be out. I'm not advanced enough to understand moving darts etc and adjusting patterns. I just want the pleasure of whipping up something easily that fits.
I'd like to find a good casual dress that I can make for wearing on the weekend, maybe in ponte di roma or cotton?
I've got the Tilly Coco dress from a couple of years ago but not done anything with it. I see she's bought out a new Bettine dress too.
Otherwise have come across this Burda Anda dress, and is more loose fitting on the top.

Can anyone offer me any advice or recommendation of patterns that may be suitable or what they think of the above.
Thanks so much!
