Here is the finished test blouse I did. It is a linen blend and looks pretty good.

A good enough test to wear for "real" - it looks really good on Laura!

Laura, is that vee neck the default length?  I decided to get off my duff and MAKE SOMETHING, and settled on a vee-neck tunic overshirt to wear over a shell.

I tried to lower the vee neck, but it won't lower, it just makes a jog!  How did you do that?

Laura and Kat are on a roadtrip to NYC and since Laura is driving, I'll answer for her.

The neckline has to be changed in two steps and order is important.
1.  Select the depth and width that you want in the Neckline tool.
2.  Apply the vee neckline using the Neckline Selector.

Each time you make changes in the Neckline tool you will need to Apply the Neckline even though you do not want to change neckline shapes.

I'm attaching snags of my basic blouse with three versions of the Vee -- default, 3" deep, and 5" deep

I'm hoping that the "jog" that you see is just the smaller default.

Thanks, Gayle.  I did it backwards - neckline first and then depth.  The jog is the default, and I was on a roll so I just folded it out.

Hi Kathy - Laura says that the blouse was lowered by about 2 inches. So first set the neckline frame and then apply neckline.
