That's why I don't buy kits. I've tried different companies and complained and was told no guarantees since I cut into fabric. I've spent about $300.00 on different kits. Some patterns are a lot off kilter also. Got a kit once and a whole page of instructions was missing. Company wanted to charge me for the extra page about 30% of cost of kit. I will not purchase any kit. Too many free patterns to choose from. I have always been short fabric.
