Notes	This pattern is too large in the waist, as you can see in the photos. It looks like a potato sack. I will not be using it again. If you still decide to make this pattern, be aware that the waistband measurements (both front and back) are incorrect, as both pieces are too short. Also, the upper front and back pattern pieces are single-layer only. I chose to line them because it allows for a cleaner finish on the shoulder straps. In addition, reinforcement is needed at the front to attach the buttons for the shoulder straps. Conclusion: the pattern illustration looks more appealing than the finished garment does in reality.
