I'm attempting this for the first time and am getting very confused at just pinning the fronts and back! Do the notches near the neck line not match? Should I ignore them and bodge it by eye?
So Sorry just saw this! You have to spread them over the pivot point you cut in an earlier step(3) You want to make sure your shoulder lines are even and I would pin those first. The fabric around the neck will slightly fall below those pivot points on either side like in the picture in step 7 and 8. I hope that helps!
Thank you very much for this video - especially explaining the pivot point!
I am so glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, the pivot point is tricky ;)
Thanks for the tutorial! Sewing the back and front together along the pivot point is really tricky but you made it really easy!
Thank you so much, I am so happy the tip helped you !
Really great instructions . Thank you very much. It really helped me a lot.
I am so glad! Thank you, let me know if you have any questions.
Getting the pivot point correctly wasn't so clear following the book instructons. Thank you for the video!
I am so glad it helped! Thank you :)
Thanks - I really found this helpful as the instructions in the book aren’t terribly clear!
I am so glad!! They are a bit vague at times :)

also - it helps me if I baste it together first if the instructions are confusing :)
