    Pretty. You talk about stitches, but, how do you measure your front, sides, back to obtain your personal size.

      @luckyplatypus  2 місяці тому +2

      @@TNBredRose throw over your shoulder when you think wide enough. The front panel should sit half way across your breast. For the back you can measure your back and do the back that wide or once again throw over your shoulder and see if the back panel is wide enough. Hope that makes sense.
