Trouble with matching side panels to front and back pieces!!

Hi everyone,

Has anyone had this issue? My side panels seem to curve hugely and not match the back panel or front panel at the top of the side panels for about 2 inches?! I manged to sew the front and side panels together but was tricky. Is there something I've missed or are doing wrong. The pieces I cut all match the pattern perfectly but don't come together like in the instructions!!!! I'm making it in a size 6. When lying the side panel on front or back piece the notches match, the bottom matches but then at the top the side panels all curve inward away from the seam edge and so much that they curve further than the seam allowance allows so to stitch I can't start at the top as not in the seam allowance! Don't know if that makes sense....wish I could draw it.

HELP!!!
