New bra pattern

Today I started a new bra prototype. Hopefully the fitting will go well. Also experimenting on some new pattern layout and marking techniques. Tried tailor's tacks, chalk lines, pencil lines. Not sure which method will prevail.

Also tried the method of adding the seam lines after tracing pattern to fabric. Don't know if I like this method as is. Thought about modifying it a bit. So far I like to use the tailor's tacking, and marking points where the seam is to match up better. Next time I'll leave the pattern whole with the seam allowances intact, but use a hole punch so I can make holes for the tailor's tacking along where the finished seam will be. Also use to mark things like match points and darts for example. Let's see how this will work.

Today the Cupid Designs called me back, but I missed the call. A woman named Pam wants me to schedule an interview.
