    This pattern has been cut to a size 10. This is a problem. There are no cut off pieces in the envelope for me to reattach. . I am in need of a size 16. This is a waist of money. What should I do? I am being honest!!! Thank you

    🌺Hello, I'm so sorry!! Sometimes pattern sizing is overlooked sending out a pattern that has been mismarked. This has happened before to me, and all I can do is apologize and offer your money back or pick out any pattern that you would like in in my store. Please don't worry about the cost, and don't worry about sending the miss marked pattern back to me. When you contact me again would you please go to my store and click on contact seller.
