There are lines to adjust the length on the skirt patterns.
Not on the bodice pattern.
I lengthed the skirt by 6" en my hem is 1" deep.
And I am 1m 78cm.
The only thing I don't like on the *TV460 *are the gathers at the sleeve
top.
There were way to much gathers and it looked silly.
But I think she did a really good job on the patterns.
They are the simple shapes for the garments and are so easy to adjust to
make them more fancy.

Hi,
I live in the USA, about 1 county over from where
"Heather" the woman who owns "Truly Victorian" lives,
I have meet and talked to Heather at Victorian 12th
night celebrations and Victorian Faires, and can vouch
that she is not short, I'm 5 ft tall and she towers
over me a good foot and a half.
She wears her creations at the faires and events too.
I haven't been able to access my sewing room as it
has become a temp-y storage area during house
renovations
,but I do have her Polanaise pattern waitng for me,
are there any "adjust for height/length here" lines on
the patterns? I can't get tomine to check.....
Her web site has an area for questions and help with
the patterns, heck she even offered to have people
come to her house to get help with the fitting.
I'm sure any problem you encountered with the patterns
she would be happy to help with, she likes feed back
on the designs.

It was also way to short.
The TV patterns are made for very short women.
I made the sleeve 10cm longer and still it ended up
being to short.

Greetings,

You are right that they are fitted into the
armscye. I know someone else who
had this trouble with the patterns.
