I always struggle with this because I don't want to over adjust and have it draw more attention to the deformity.

It also helped keep the armholes similar in size, otherwise, yes, we could have had two different sized armholes and therefore two different sleeve patterns. <br />I did have to adjust the set of the left sleeve compared to the right.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192103872756970288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6470691509282789478.post-10257678071888222022017-03-26T11:02:59.749-04:002017-03-26T11:02:59.749-04:00I do teach sometimes.

The only experience I have had with asymmetrical shoulder issues I had to solve with shoulder pads built into a t shirt, since we had no time to hand tailor for the actor.

Can't wait to see the finished product.Nancy Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454385287886216079noreply@blogger.com
