After having tried everything else, I have decided that part of my fitting problems is that I am making the wrong size. I have always used the upper bust measurement, but my pattern is a Style Arc pattern, and they only give the full bust finished measurement. I tried to determine the upper bust measurement of the pattern by measuring from the bottom of the armscye horizontally across the front and back bodice pieces, but my measurement matched their finished full bust measurement. So, I did that incorrectly. Where on the front and back bodice pattern pieces would I measure to figure out the upper bust measurement? Would I start at the midpoint of the armscye and go across? I have googled to find the answer to this question, but all I get is how to measure the upper bust on my body, not a pattern piece. Thanks.
