If I do, life will bend to accommodate me.

But boy, for somebody who hasn't sewed much since my early 20s, it really taxed my brain to put that extra inch on a neckline with all those swoopy curves. I think I've got it figured out, with facing and interfacing to match. But I'm scared to take the scissors to the fabric.
