Rated 3 out of 5

While it was easy to put together, I don’t like the pieces nestling inside each other. I had to cut one pattern piece and the fabric, then cut that pattern piece to get to the next one. This pattern is only good for a one-time use unless you buy two. When we buy patterns, we don’t expect to have to butcher it to use it, and to only get to use it once without buying a second. Printing may not be cheap, but it’s also not cheap to have to buy a second pattern to get one piece so the pattern can be used again.

This is a lovely pattern – Higly Recommended for those larger women on your list! Pattern works up easily for adaptation. For those who are lamenting about pieces being nestled, have you heard of tracing paper, or aisle runner (from your local church) for tracing pattern pieces? I NEVER, EVER cut original patterns! I always trace!! Since the house in which this pattern is used for has stairs, we always need to do away with the slight train for safety sake. I think this takes away from the effect, but – – – – !! (and this one need no wine to finish! heehee!)
