It's good to know that there are methods for raising a cowl neckline other than just sticking an insert into the top (which rather ruins the point of the cowl neck, doesn't it?). I may be able to start sewing again in June - this year has been so difficult with my husband's surgery and recovery, and May is shaping up to be a really busy month for this family. So, June and summer dresses are looking hopeful to me.Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-69761321727993992172014-05-06T08:56:36.775-04:002014-05-06T08:56:36.775-04:00Thank you for mentioning my post, Faye!

The difference between the shorter and deeper cowl, was the width across the fold line. The deeper cowl was much wider, and as you can see in the deep cowl and the one she's shortened is how much narrower it is at the fold line.This is a really easy way to make it shallower and no real math involved makes it very attractive!Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-85356058296051568282014-05-05T08:15:37.066-04:002014-05-05T08:15:37.066-04:00Thanks for the tutorial on raising a cowl neck.
