Заметки	Fabric: I use 2 pieces of 1x1.5 m cotton fabric, that is on one side brushed that makes it look like flannel. The color is a darker dusky pinky-peach, and it darkens too much if wet. Being worried any sweat would show on the fabric eventually, I place matching lace pieces on the side as decoration, and using the same at the slit. Fit: I have ordered custom measurements pattern with only one custom option: low hip height. But it turns out to be different than expected: because the waist measurement is over 15 cm larger than the size I gave that seemed to me an error . The rest fits well, hip was 8 cm too large but it could just be the design ease. I contacted lekala they told me it is a design feature, and if I look well in the illustration , under the belt there are some gathers… true. The panels at the waist don’t match up. But those have just 1-2 cm mismatch so it might just be me cutting incorrectly ? Not sure. If anyone makes it can you tell me how it goes ? I think with standard size or larger size the pattern would work, I am sure It is bugging only with smaller custom measurements. I still recommend the pattern because it is a gorgeous design. For personal preference I have shortened it at the hem. I also started the zipper lower and used a decorative hook and eye.
