 Most common reasons a handmade garment doesn't fit - a checklistThere’s nothing more frustrating than putting the time and fabric into making a piece of clothing only to put in on when you’re done and find out that it doesn’t fit.  I’ve done that more times than I care to admit!  My first instinct is to just cuss and cry, but cussing and crying doesn’t solve a problem or keep it from happening again.  Jenny from Cashmerette has a checklist of reasons why a handmade garment ends up not fitting.  Take a look through her list to see if you can find the culprit so you can prevent it happening again.
