Here are the alterations I made:

I'm really thrilled with how this dress is turning out and will have finished shots of it next weekend.

Here are the alterations I made:
Yoke front:
This piece was sliced from the bottom to the top and spread
1.25" at the bottom. I used pattern paper from Dick Blick
to hold the pattern alteration.**
Side Front:
~ Added 2" to the bottom of the piece
~ Added 1" to the side waist area
I also added an inch to the top of the side front piece but
I later removed it because I didn't need it.
Center Front Piece:
~ Added 1" to the center front
~ Added 2" to the bottom of the piece
