I agree with some of the other comments - definitely make a muslin (or two) before you begin to get them to fit how you want.<br /><br />I think because this pattern has such few pieces you should be able to match the gingham fairly easily.sallie oleta barbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184217699471081340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1401460045100208871.post-77461649066107474942012-04-09T18:46:28.962-07:002012-04-09T18:46:28.962-07:00I haven't sewn the clover but I have faith you...I haven't sewn the clover but I have faith you can do it. Matching stripes is all about matching them when you cut. Cut one piece and lay it over the other to match the stripes/pattern.

And there are only 2 pieces... the front and the back, and you "cut 2" of each, but cutting them each one at a time helps with the matching.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191713016037761271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1401460045100208871.post-87496658722267404112012-04-09T15:37:30.400-07:002012-04-09T15:37:30.400-07:00Ooh, what an awesome outfit!!

Just buy extra fabric in the gingham and know that it might not all be perfect but only you will ever notice. <br /><br />strugglesewsastraightseam.wordpress.comLeah Franquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03486291322862758156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1401460045100208871.post-17540458202642753292012-04-09T11:16:44.062-07:002012-04-09T11:16:44.062-07:00I haven't sewn my Clovers yet (but I'm usi...I haven't sewn my Clovers yet (but I'm using the pattern as a jumping off point for my own Sew Cinematic project), but I can say that matching gingham on a curve (like on a crotch) can be annoying if you aren't super careful in the cutting and pinning. I think it would be doable though.Katyahttp://toastyknitsandsews.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
