I read that on your blog. I have line backer shoulders so I should not have a problem with that.

Oh I made this version and had a problem with the fit on the shoulders too - slip straight off!!

Stacy- you would be surprised!

Karen and Stacey- how do you suggest how to remedy the shoulder issue?

I plan on taking some tucks in the front. When I pinned it that way it seemed to help a GREAT deal.  The neckline is just sooooo open. Leaves way too much room and that lets the straps hang right off.
