I cut out Todd's Blue Fleece and it just occured to me, i'll see him this Saturday. I can get it made to fit or finish it and hand it to him.
This will be the diary of it's construction. I cut out the medium size and did not add any length.
i folded the fabric with both selvaged together on one side and a fold on the other.
Well here is a snafu: I transfered the markings to the wrong side of this piece called FRONT. There is a front and a side front. Well, i'm having trouble with 1. right/wrong sides 2. up/down 3. left/right. This piece is a rectangle. I'm confused about how it gets marked. I think I'll just mark it so it fits MY paradigm and forget the pattern.
Why I don't like fleece: Too thick, too hard to pick out mistakes, can't tell right/wrong sides, nap.
How I marked the sleeves: I put the same color pin on sleeve as it's matching spot on shirt. no pencil marks. for 1 notch=1 pin. for 2 notches=2 pins.
Just put second sleeve on. It didn't fit, which means i have the either reversed, wrong side up or ??I HATE FLEECE. I was looking forward to the sleeves. I've made things with sleeves before. I know there is a left and right. But this pattern doesn't work like that. What did I do wrong?
It stays
