I've learned a couple of things from my foray into pattern drafting. The
first is that despite being very tall, my waist is practically in my
armpits, and the second is that my <ahem> bust points are further apart
than Vogue places them. So, I've shortened an inch from above the waist
(but didn't bother lengthening at the bottom, perhaps I should) and moved
the front darts each a half-inch towards the side seam. I'm really looking
forward to trying it on and seeing the improvement!

Pattern drafting software!!! (I requested mine for a combined birthday/wedding anniv. present about three years ago, and I swear by it rather than at it).
