Hi everyone... Thank you so much for replying to my post. I took all of your advice and came up with a plan that worked..
First I measured everything.. Not too far off, now to deal with the curve... 1 paired the rows, then marked the 1/2 and 1/4s on each row. Then I matched the half and quarters - and eased the rest in pinning, pinning, pinning. Finally, sewed with the white on white on the bottom so it helped in the easing.. Then - when I pressed the sewed together pairs, I starched....
I think it will work. Thank you soo much for your guidance.
