Directions leave much to the imagination

The project is darling; however, the directions were a disaster. I have sewed for 68 years and have a home economics education degree and taught clothing construction. I now understand on what others commented.

It sounds like you encountered some frustratingly unclear directions for your sewing project, despite your extensive experience.
It's common for patterns or instructions to have ambiguities, even for experienced sewers.
Have you tried:
Consulting online resources? A quick search for the pattern name or specific techniques might yield helpful tutorials or discussions from other sewers who encountered similar challenges.
Reaching out to other sewers for help? Perhaps a local sewing group or online forum could offer valuable insights and alternative interpretations of the instructions.
I hope you're able to overcome the challenges and successfully complete your project! I only see great reviews for this so I apologize if they are not clear for you.

Zips

I love the fact that the zippers can be cut to fit the project. The tutorial was wonderfully Help. However, the zippers unzip very easily, maybe a little too easily.

Thank you for the review and it is great to hear that you are enjoying the zippers. We would love to see what you are creating on our SallieTomato Patterns and Hardware Group on Facebook.
