    hi Durga,

    The thread you started is a good one. But lot of delay from your side. Are you still having problem with using the net. Lot of doubts were asked. But some of them are only answered. Even I have a doubt to ask. I want to know whether there is any method to get the seams and edges perfectly. I'm having problem with perfect stiches while folding the edges. Please help.

    Hi Durga,

    I have this problem with the sleeves when I sew. I find that while joining the sleeve to the bodice, either the armhole is small or too big. How do I rectify this? I would appreciate if you can show the draft for the same pictorially and explain.

    Thanks in advance.
