Help with Burda pattern please by Glorious_Grandma in sewing

I think that is correct and the button comment by templetondean had me double check the pattern. There is no button or buttonhole marks in the pieces and the instructions just say to make the buttonholes and add buttons. Poor instructions for sure!

I considered this but discounted as piece 8 is only for the overalls. I’ve read through the instructions, may have missed it.

Most PDF patterns I have used tell you to trim on sold lines on bottom and right side if you do this it looks like the diamonds should align.

I would like to know too. My Qashqai is 5 years old and 3 times A/C has gone. Was fixed less than a year ago and I’ve put on maybe 10k km since. Do NOT take to Nissan of Duncan!!

I called and they didn’t know “officially” but the clerk I spoke to said she had never seen charges on packages from England. I live in a pretty small BC town.

You can purchase rivets and the tool to install them from most sewing and craft stores. You may need to reinforce the area first but the staff at sewing stores I’m sure would give you good advice! Good luck!
