ANIMAL CATCHUP

I'm not giving up.

A few people have shared a brilliant idea to solve my shirt sewing size issue. Simplicity patterns don't come any smaller than a size 6, which was floating too big.

Absolutely zero recollection of what the child's pattern was for, could've been a costume for all I remember, but that's all to be determined. Plus, instead of going with the New Look: Easy 2 Hour pattern, I'm going to try the It's so Easy pattern. Will let you know which is more "beginner / don't know anything" friendly.
