Looking at the guide sheet, find the section marked “layout.” Find the layout for the view you are interested in making.  Locate the layout for your fabric width, and circle it.

There's so much good content at that link you provided at the end. Why do we have to visit your website to read it? This just seems like an attempt to generate web traffic for yourself, you'd probably get a better response from interested people if you showed off how much you know rather than filling the ible in as sparsely as possible then trying to get them to go to your website for the full article.

Thanks so much for your comment! Great to hear that you found the article useful.

All of the articles reside at PowerSewing.com because the Learn To Sew Series is also featured on several other sites and it is much easier to have the articles in a central location since some of the sites do not provide a place for written content.

Happy Holidays!
