Sorry for slow reply and thank you for yours. I took an inch off each side of back panel and it didn’t make a lot of difference. I think if I take much more off it will start to pull the side panels around. I haven’t time now to try but wanted to thank you and let you know I was in process of trying.

Joan

A large. I want it to sit on my natural waist. I sewed a size that should have resulted in 1/2 inch ease at natural waist but I’ve had to severely pull in elastic at back panel (41/2inches to be chopped off elastic). The front seems to fit reasonably well. So I’m thinking of reducing width of back panel. How much would peopl…[Read more]

Sorry I didn’t get back to you. Late night and busy day. Yes it did. I had similar trouble to others with printing where it kept printing at 7/8inch. I had it on the 100% – which on Mac (or Canon) is same as no scale. I’m not sure if it was the Mac or Canon driving the options but in my print dialogue box there…[Read more]

Thanks for your reply. I too am in AUS.Yes that helps. It was just the way it was phrased as if each of the test squares might be different. It would be good if each said 1 inch in the box. Anyway you’ve reassured me. Thank you. Joan

I’m not understanding this instruction. Measure the test square on each page to ensure the pattern has printed to the appropriate scale. What is the appropriate scale? It doesn’t tell me until the second test square. Do I assume the previous test…[Read more]
