Reply To: Right Front Button Packet (Stwo Pieces)

[professorpincushionParticipant]

oh no! that sounds so frustrating! I went to the fabric store so I could look up the directions myself because it’s usually easier for me to understand if I have both the written and picture graphic images, but they didn’t have it so I’m not sure if this is an out-of-print pattern. I’m assuming at this stage the facing is still separate and has not been sewn to the garment yet. Is there a left fly and right fly? or only a right fly? Because maybe the previous instructions where they wanted you to sew on the fly, it was only for the left one. Then it might make sense that you’re sewing the right fly with the front facing and neither are attached to the garment yet. If it were me, I’d make up this garment in a muslin, at least the parts that you’re having trouble with, so I could experiment without doing damage to the real garment. Sometimes when I’m kind of stuck, I’ll do my best guess, and then as I continue later steps will suddenly make the previous step make more sense to me. But if you want to upload images of the directions that also show the pictures of the steps, I might be able to help better.
