Self-fitting is easy for Cynthia because she applies new simplified methods. Her dress is already permanently stiched at the waistline; corrections are being made at the shoulder seam. Modern technique avoids confusing pieces; dress quickly emerges in final form. Good sewing schools advocate minimum of basting. Prefer tailors' chalk to pins so fitting isn't "lost" in removing garment
