Waist band/facing

Ok, I looking at assemble the front dress, directions 3 -5.


I am missing something. It just isn't clicking. Direction 3 says...pin the waist band to the front bodice matching the single notch (the top of the waist band is marked with a single notch, bottom with multiples).


A) match the single notch with what? I assume the single notch in the bodice, yes?


Assuming that, the single notch with wrong sides together will be on the bottom, and multiple notch on the top so when you press open, the multiple notch edge will be down/ at the bottom.


But looking at the picture, it looks like I should be sewing across the multiple notch edge?


Then step 4 I am fine... Take and finish the multiple notch edge. I assume so all seams can be encased inside the waist band.


Now step 5...it says pin facing to wrong side of dress, yet picture looks like right side of dress???


Are the pics wrong?
