When i cut out the waistband I wasnt paying attention and cut them all folded over. I cut 2 pieces of each and ended up with way too many waistbands as the front has a left and right. But i have enough fabric left now that if i want to add fancy cuffs i can.

I sewed the felled seams using a decorative stitch and I wish i had used a straight stitch. But they are done.

So i remade them out of plaid and hated them too. They were only big enough for my fingers and I had to french seam them because of the fraying and they were bulky.

I kind of like it without the crinoline, which is a little out of control after being stuffed into the closet

Its been driving me crazy keeping it centered in my tiny hoop and its so small I have to keep moving it. So i decided to go with the big boy. I had to add fabric to the sides to use the hoop. I baste stitches muslin on with super wide stitches so they would remove easily

I thought i lost a bolt and needed one more so i went back to home depot and picked up another and some white duct tape. I got the last bolt in and covered all the insulation with duct tape on both sides.
