Great pattern

The only problem I have is the amount of paper you need in order to print the patterns. Otherwise I would’ve given it a five star.

Hi Brenda, thank you for your kind words and feedback! I understand paper usage can be a concern, and I appreciate your honesty. We're always working to improve, and your input helps. Happy sewing!

If your measurements fall between sizes, consider the fit you prefer (looser or tighter) and the type of fabric you'll use, as some fabrics have more give. All patterns include finished garment measurements which can be helpful to know how much ease or extra room is built into the design.
