Probably someone on here has an easier solution, so I'll be watching also.
This also sounds like good advice too. I tell ya, when I start add to this and then adding to that . . . I get sooo nervous! LOL I've had to add to clothing patterns before and boy it was a crap shoot if the garment would fit like I thought it would. LOL
This is the nicest place on the earth with so many good folks. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions and help. Makes a newbie feel welcomed and ready to start the task ahead! :-D
