Bonniefitting rounded shoulders?
Hi, I'm new to DS v9 , haven't sewn apparel since versions 4/5. I really like the new program, but miss the back shoulder darts which were in the older versions fitting bodice. I am having trouble with getting the top slopers to fit my shoulders/upper back without a back shoulder dart. My back is somewhat rounded with foreward shoulders and neck. I can adjust the patterns by hand , but really prefer to see if this can be done by the program draft. Would it be better to use one of the regular fitted top patterns, bodice or fitted blouse, instead of the fitting blouse to improve my sloper? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Kaaren Hobackoops accientally sent before I was finished. The fit garment does not allow modification BUT all the patterns do. Kaaren

BonnieThank you for the prompt response. Will try the fitted blouse and see how that does.
