    I am trying to alter the bodice of the Betty dress. I watched your bodice alteration tutorial but the problem is that I cannot find a grain line on the Betty bodice front to utilize. I need to shorten the bodice, what line do I extend? Can you help? I just bought the pattern and I’m lost on this issue.
    Thanks

    Sorry for the delay in response. I’m in the process of moving and things are definitely crazy right now. This actually has an easy solution. The grainline, if they would have drawn one, would be parallel to the center front line, (the edge of the pattern that is placed on the fold). So you can either draw your own grainline that is parallel with the foldline arrow or trace a line along the foldline side of the pattern and slide the pattern up or down against that line. I hope that helps you move forward! 😀

    Thank You! I thought it best to follow that line but didn’t want to assume anything. Good luck with the move!
