Blue Prints
Here is basically what I am doing for the Glorfindel Tunic:
Taking a moderately tight fitting t-shirt and drawing a line down the center front. Then I will take the shirt in til it is quite tight to my body down to my waist, sticking in pins as I go down...front and back. Next I will have someone cut on the straigh line all the way up.
The shirt will now be in two pieces that I will take off and lay on the floor. After this, I will add about 10 inches length and give each new edge about 1 1/2 - 2 inches of flare. Then I will seam rip the t-shirt collar off and take the sleeves out. I will add a bit of length to it and draw the petal wrap shape how I want it. I will cut along that line and seam rip the inner arm seam. The real fabric will be folded and the inner seam will be placed along the fold.
Don't really know what I am going to do for the leggings as the pattern I have requires 60" fabric and I can't find anything I like. I might look online for knit leggings or something.
