Has anyone actually sewn this pattern?
http://www.themayfly.com/weblog/2007/02/happy_smocket.htmlI printed the PDF and sewed it together hoping for approximately a size 2T (as described in the tutorial) but when finished, it barely fits my 13 month old daughter. The pattern doesn't include seam allowances so I kept that in mind when I cut the fabric -- so that's not the problem. I love, love this smock and have so much appreciation for people who take the time to post free patterns and tutorials -- I'm just trying to figure out where I went wrong.
Any ideas how to enlarge the pattern by hand (not on a copier)? How can I know approximately what "off the rack" clothing size I'm making?
Thanks!
