not your fault - it serves me right for trying to calculate stuff while the kids are playing madly while somehow not *quite* climbing the walls in the process though not for lack of trying ;-) and anyway.. I sew with a 1/2"seam allowance no matter what measuring system I happen to be using at the time... for this project it's cm *not* inches and a metric seam allowence is usually counted as 0,75 mm which is
0,15 more than 1/4" (give or take an impossible fraction) so I counted 1,5 cm seam allowance instead of 1,2 cm and as I sew scant that heaped up a bit more so the end result is that if I trim the seam allowence I sewed earlier I'm home and dry :-Dhey I'm half done trimming and got the first border joined again and it
*fits* yay!anyone got any spare midnight oil I can borrow?
uh, uh, uh, ok, jess. i'm sure you got it under control but you lost me on all those numbers, lol. jeanne
