I had to re-measure the back and front panel piece, working out the exact measurement of how far down the piece the panel lines needed to be drawn. I had to zoom in quite close so I could pin down the line to just the right measurement.
I traced off the bottom panels, as this was where I wanted most of the fullness. I used the fullness tool and added 3cm to the side seams.
To change the neckline and lower the shape, I first chose to use the offset even tool, taking away 3.5cm front the front and back panels. Even though this appeared to work, when I toiled up the chest panel, the shoulder seams didn't match up.
I realised that the offset even tool had take too much off the neck line at the shoulder seam because the shoulder seam slopes.
Therefore, I used digitized lines and measuring as I go to reposition the neck line. I finished off the neckline shape using a 2 point curve to take away a perfect 3.5cm round the entire neckline.
The panels were retraced off with the new adjustments and 1cm seam allowance added.
