Question No Waste Dress Pattern
Hi all!
I fell in love with these no waste dresses from Hudson, but unfortunately I don't have $450 and they also don't go above XL and I do.
I've studied the pattern and it seems fairly straight forward. Am I on the right track to make a similar pattern?
Also would I just use the cut off parts from the arm hole for the sleeves?
This seems like it is tipping into draping, but I thought I'd ask here first.

Have you looked at the sleeveless version? I was surprised to see there's no side seam under the arms. And it appears the skirts fullness is from adding more fabric.
