Thank you! I loved this fabric until I tried to match the stripes…!

Thank you! Snaps and Silflex gauge are wonderful sewing tools. I didn’t want to risk my button bands get wonky because of a tantrum from my sewing machine so used snaps!!! And the Simflex is really a Godsend when you don’t have to calculate the spacing between your buttonholes!!!

Kam snaps are the greatest invention, particularly on knits, where buttonholes sometimes go wonky! And the simflex, I’m tall, so have to add length, same spacing process though, top and bottom, and everything is evenly spaced in between.
