Hi Pat -

This is coming along nicely. Since you don't have much info in the photo, can you finish it with simple lines indicating necklines? You might be able to get some kids locally to pose in the same position for you, so you can see what the necklines would do without puffy sleeves in the way.

Julie

Hi Julie,
That's not a bad idea, maybe I will "scrounge around" for a couple kids. I looked, rather studied all my anatomy books, including one I have with children, but couldn't figure out what her shoulder/shoulder blades/back are quite doing in the photo. It is an odd twist, and you can tell she has her shoulder somewhat hunched up to her cheek.
