Could you either upload a smaller photo or link to a photo hosted elsewhere (flickr allows for pretty big files) — I’m afraid I’m having a bit of trouble picturing the problem you’re describing.

I didn’t have this issue, but agree with Nicole. Did you trim enough away from the seam allowance? It seems like that seam is to be trimmed to 1/8″? Sometimes that cause you to lose a little as well.

@dubhels2003 You got your wish! She’s a Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

I think the Diana-part was a given, more or less. I’m a Charlotte myself (well, Charlotta to be honest, but close enough) and I don’t mind.
