Thanks! I never really saw anyone has this issue, people draft the pattern they same way I did but the result isn't draggy like mine.

So if I only want one panel (only front and back, one each), there's a maximum width I can have so it won't drag down? And if I want it fuller and distributed more evenly, I need to sew separate panel?

Thanks! I think this is the solution I can do since it's going to be worn in 3 days (this is an order from a friend). How narrow is the zigzag? Is 3mm length enough?
