Am I the first one to attempt this? I'm getting lost in the TRACING. Usually I have no problem tracing Ottos, but good golly there are like 800 overlapping patterns on sheet E, it's AWFUL.

Also, the placement of the buttonholes is all wrong if you make anything but the smallest size. And it is IMPOSSIBLE to trace it. I am not kidding. This is really ticking me off.

OK this pattern is DEFECTIVE as published and doesn't work for any size other than 128. Proof:

Please note that there are NO alternate buttonhole placements for different sizes. I have highlighted the only possible placements.


Also note, this is what the whole friggin pattern sheet looks like. TRY AND FOLLOW THE LIGHT GREEN LINE I DARE YOU.

Gah what a pile of crap. Ottobre should reprint this pattern sheet IMO because it's unusable right now.

Tracing it stinks but darn if it doesn't turn out cute!!

Sorry, it's photobucket's change to make people pay money. I can't do anything about it. :(
