I think you are so clever for adding the ties on. I know that’s pretty easy but I definitely would not have even thought of doing that! Sizing is a nightmare though isn’t it..

thank you . yes it was a quick fix with the ties , but it works , lol. I know now why other sewers opt for making toiles first to try out patterns , BUT I m a time stressed ( and sometime lazy ) sewer, plus the pattern looked so straight forward I wasn’t expecting sizing issues , : ) ( my pathetic excuses )

thank you , but the sizing is still giving me hiccups , as I am thinking to make other styles from this book. I may have to make a toile first , ha !
