Genevieve Dress Pattern:
In the Layout Guide on the pullout centerfold the yardage requirement for the Godet fabric size 3 and 4 was inadvertently left out. You will need 1 yard of contrast fabric for sizes 3 and 4.
Also, the materials list on page 47 calls for 1/8-inch ribbon and the Yardage Chart on the pullout centerfold calls for 1/4-inch ribbon. 1/4-inch ribbon is correct, but 1/8-inch ribbon will also work.
Genevieve Lace Chart:
The amount of lace beading required for a size four is 5/8 yard, not 3/8 yard. The 1/2 yard amount for the smaller sizes is correct. Please note this on your chart for future reference.
An important step in the instructions for creating the lace sleeve band is missing. After step 18 on page 50, it should be noted that once the lace beading is joined to the entredeux, the strip should be cut in half to create two sleeve bands of approximately 8-3/4- to 9-1/2 inches each. The two pieces of lace edge mentioned in Step 19 are to be stitched to each of the sleeve bands created in this new step. We apologize for this oversight. |

Silk and Sparkle Dress Pattern
Corrections for pattern piece and cutting information:
Piece #2 Back Yoke instructs to cut 2 from silk, this should say Cut 2 from Velvet
Piece #10 Back Skirt Placket instructs to cut 2, this should say Cut 1
Piece #4 Back Facing Extension states to cut 2 on the pattern piece, but the layout guide indicates that only one is cut. The pattern piece is correct, you must cut 2 extension pieces.
The Layout Guide shows the collar, and yokes as being cut from interfacing. Only the collar requires interfacing, not the yokes. |

Hello Humpty
|
The Humpty Dumpty Sweater shown on the front cover of our Issue #108 and along with the Hello Humpty smocked romper on page 22 is from the Bliss Collection by Bella Bliss (www.blisscollection.com), not Baby Bliss. These sweaters are currently available at their website. We apologize for the confusion.

Window Smocked
Butterflies by
Nancy McEvoy
John and Suzanne Bubble Pattern
|
The "JoAnn" sundress pattern can be found in issue #93 not issue #94.
The boy's sleeve pattern on the #106 centerfold was designed according to the original pattern from our Spring 1989 issue, which shows a 3/4-inch turned up cuff. The modern design in Issue #106 offers a trimmed edged band that is sewn like an appliqué and is not a turned up, folded cuff. The shape of the sleeve pattern on the pullout centerfold is for a folded turned up cuff and does not look like the illustrations on page 45, so there has been some confusion. To make a sleeve with a trimmed edge, faux cuff, as shown in Issue #106, cut the sleeve pattern along the dotted line designated as the "foldline." Remove another 1/4-inch from this edge to allow a 1/2-inch seam allowance for the cuff rectangle that will be added in Step 17, Figure 2. Prepare the cuff and finish the sleeves according to the article's instructions. |

The DMC floss color for the light blue bow on the sheep's neck was left off of the materials list and the instructions. Please use two to three strands of #3325-light blue DMC six strand cotton embroidery floss to stitch the bow on the felt sheep before appliquéing the sheep to the blanket. Stitch an outline of the bow shape with a back stitch, then satin stitch according to the detail photos provided. |

Vintage Chic Petticoat Skirt

On Step 10, the last sentence should
read. Cut this strip in half to measure 2 x 112 inches.
There are five 2-inch strips joined end-to-end to create one long 225-inch strip. This is tucked down the center and then the strip is cut in half making two, 112-1/2 inch strips (trim off the 1/2 inch extra so that is will match strip "c" above it. |

The yardage for Victorian embroidered edging should be 8-3/4 yds NOT 6-3/4 yds.
Also, the cutting guide was mistakenly left off the centerfold. Click here to view this guide.

The website for the free download machine applique design is www.sewmanydesigns.com, not somanydesigns. We apologise for this error.
The Hankie Blankie Kit offer (with embroidery card) comes with Martha Pullen's Heirloom Classics 1 card, NOT the Janome Card. If you want to make the blanket as shown, you should order the kit (without CD) and buy the Janome card separately.

The scalloped yoke overlay template converted to a slightly large size when computerized, to remedy the problem place template from the center fold on a copy machine and copy at 88 percent for a correct fit to Debbie Glenn's "Rose Petals and Lace Daygown" Pattern.
Cut the neck casing 1-1/4 inches wide and attach it just as directed. That should leave you with a finished casing width of 1/4 inch, maybe just a thread or two more. If there seems to be too much bulk in the shoulder area, trim the seam allowance before turning the pressed edge into place. (The exact finished width of this casing is not critical - if 1/4 inch seems too narrow, cut the casing 1-1/2 inches to give a little more room. Don't go much wider than that, because you don't want the ribbon to float around too much inside the casing.)
The smocking graph was accidentally left off the centerfold. Click here for a printable PDF. |

Elegant Appliqué in Sumptuous Silk

The sleeve and lower back templates for the appliqué design are mislabelled on the pull out centerfold pattern sheet. The template labeled "Sleeve Design" is actually the lower back jacket template, and the template labeled "Back Design" is actually the lower sleeve template. Please make of note on your pattern pull out for future reference. |

Dress pattern size is stated incorrectly for Mystery Dress. Size should be 6-14. Pattern pull-out is correct
The photograph of the smocking detail on page 41 is pictured upside-down. This is difficult to see, since it is a white on white design, but if following this photo while stitching, you will need to turn the magazine around. |

The instructions say to use a 1/4-inch seam allowance along the neckline when attaching the collar. This should be a 1/2-inch seam allowance, as the pattern allows for a 1/2 inch seam.

Antique Version
Bodice, page 62, Step 1
Instructions say to mark edge of fabric every 3/4 inch; that should be every 1 inch.
Skirt, page 64
In the skirt section we have instructed you to join the three skirt panels with lace before folding the skirt tucks. This should be reversed; the Tucks must be folded and stitched, then the panel cut into three sections and the lace applied. You can also apply the lace directly on top of the two marks that divide the skirt into three panels. Once stitched the fabric from behind the lace is cut away. Either method will achieve successful results.
Under the skirt heading for the antique view construction, work steps 7, 8, and 9 first, then begin back at step 1. |

A Bubble for Belles and Beaus
|
The bottom two pattern lines of "Martha's Baby Bubble Pant Back" (pattern #10) was cut off in printing. To remedy the problem on piece #10, measure down from the top edge of the pattern along the side seam edge 14-3/4 inch for the size 18m, and 15-3/8 inch for the size 24m. Mark and draw a new line straight across the bottom at this mark and extend the crotch line down to meet the new line. Basically, you want the side seam of the front to equal the side seam of the back.

Judith Bunting actually lives in Lexington, MA, mistakenly listed as Woburn, which is where she works. K-Lace® should be written with the registration symbol; heavyweight water-soluble stabilizer was omitted from the supply list.
The centerfold information for "Making Memories" is incorrectly labeled as "Pretty as a Picture." The author and article page number are listed correctly, and the centerfold information provided is for "Making Memories." |

These are cut measurements, finished size will be smaller. If the baby is very chubby, you might want to go to the next largest size for the elastic length.
Also, there was really no need for a lace chart, don't know why it was referenced. The lace is sewn on flat (butt the heading to the finished leg edge and zigzag). Overlap the ends by about 1/2" and hand whip to finish cut edges.

|
Hope Daniel Christening Gown Pattern: The dot on the christening gown dress, back pattern piece is incorrect. The slit for the placket should be cut 7 inches long from edge of neck down center back of dress.
The tack-on roses have turned out too wide and not long enough for some tastes. If you are experincing difficulty when making these roses, try cutting the pattern narrower and longer and play with the results on a test scrap of fabric. |
