Becky, I checked out my notes on this pattern and I have made the large size and the small and I have not made mention of any discrepancies.
I am sorry not to be more help.

I am happy to share, I was given the contents of a drapery section of a small country shop. It posts very cheaply.
Let me know what you are after and I will see what I have.

My waist is too big for my pants
I wonder if, maybe, by chance
They shrunk in the wash
Yet I’m ever so posh

Oh yes, how did I forget about Craftsy? Perfect suggestion! That way, she can choose herself. Smart people in this forum!!

Yes, I second Reeni’s spray starch suggestion. I started using it a few months ago to keep knits lying flat so I could photograph the steps. Turns out, it seems a little easier to sew the knits with the spray starch, too. Much less fiddling with the curled edges.

Kym, I have a lot of cotton lace, I can send you some for future projects.

There once was a designer from New York
Who loved foie gras and pulled pork
Said he to his lady:
Patè is ethically shady…

@honeymadeit, you are so sweet!

@honeymadeit, you are so sweet!

I can’t think of a good starter
But I’ll wear my hair shirt like a martyr

The holiday season draws near
Hm, what to make for those I hold dear?
Jammies or dresses?
The decision distresses

We have all done it, don’t feel bad xx

Will have all done it, don’t feel bad xx

E-wine to both of you!

Clever!

I do a lot of darning by using a small piece of soft interfacing ironed to the back, over the hole, and then I hand sew it with a matching thread making sure not to pull it too tight. A good press afterwards flattens things down.

Often it will just look like a slub in the fabric.

You’d never believe it, I swear  
But I’m sewing a bikini to wear
To swim at the pool
But I’m no bodies fool…
My shape will cause quite a scare!
