Well, I finished the first one!! I used 2 remnants which have been in the stash for so long I can't remember. The fabric is a sort of scuba, but it creases. Nice textures though. I had to mix the two, as one wouldn't have been enough.
I used New Look 6230, and cut a size 16. It's a tad snug, but I'm not expecting to wear much under it, so it's fine.
No issues really, just that the neck seems a bit square. I thought it was me, but then I sewed the next one, and that was the same.
