This one seems to work, but autumn colors generally do nothing for me. <br /><br />I went in my blogger settings and found something to change. I am glad it worked for you. I haven't toyed with my reading settings since this blog was set up in 2007 when the need to be read on phones was not an issue. Times change and thanks for bringing it to my attention.

The more you take at the top of the dart, it just does not have enough time to reduce itself down and lie flat in that short of a space. Looking down from the top it looks like a bust dart so think of it as too big of a dart for a flat chested girl. You charm us with your fabric choices, Bunny!mrsmolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16329515914613595719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-65567310227440334902015-05-11T03:33:41.397-04:002015-05-11T03:33:41.397-04:00Hi Bunny, Yay!

It is in a linen weave but not unravelling like you might think. It has been quite cooperative.

It's more hit and miss even when I spend a lot of time at it. You've done a great job here. <br />I have a very short rise due to a tilted front waist and my darts are really pretty tiny but like you I have to have them since I've got a small waist in comparison to my hips. I find, but of course I am not thin, that moving them further to the sides works better for me.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-50066729858644122682015-05-10T14:02:49.668-04:002015-05-10T14:02:49.668-04:00Hi Bunny, I've been doing a bit of investigati...Hi Bunny, I've been doing a bit of investigating and it seems that you may need to alter the RSS feed settings in blogger:<br /><br />quote:/ The control for your blog's RSS feed is either within your blog platform's settings or your web feed manager's controls. Below you will find the settings for three popular services.<br /><br />Blogger: Settings > Other > Site feed /unquote.<br /><br />That's, of course, assuming that you're happy for people to read your posts fully in a reader rather than coming to your site. ~KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04269273256129740219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-18280801952082411422015-05-10T13:11:08.912-04:002015-05-10T13:11:08.912-04:00Hi Bunny, thanks for your comments.

I tried Bloglovin' and I didn't like the format.<br /><br />I did encounter the same Feedly problem temporarily with another blog I follow (which i had previously been able to read ok in Feedly) when she had to make some changes to her blog. When I notified her of the problem, she had her son make some changes her end and that fixed things. I don't know what it was that was adjusted, though. ~ KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04269273256129740219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-17143482039750000762015-05-10T12:25:41.140-04:002015-05-10T12:25:41.140-04:00My feedly does the same with some of my blogs, but...My feedly does the same with some of my blogs, but some not.

Perhaps another reader might be able to add something. <br /><br />I have found that what I write does not always come out the way I want it to look and it seems to depend on the computer. Sometimes it looks totally out of joint to me but others tell me it is fine and just the way I published it. Perhaps that's a browser issue for those reading, not sure.. I use blogger and bloglovin' for the blogs I follow and have had no problem as you describe. I have not had this complaint from anyone else throughout my blogging years. I am sorry you are having a difficult time following and I really appreciate that you do and I thank you.

For some reason, however, I am only able to see, at most, a paragraph of posts from your blog in Feedly and have to come to your blog to read the whole article, where the italic font is not so easy to read, especially if I am reading on the small screen of my tablet.<br /><br />Is this a conscious choice on your part or is there some switch or button you could easily flip or click to enable full functionality in Feedly? If there is, I would very much appreciate it and I would be able to keep up with your postings wherever I am instead of having to save them up to read on my large screen.<br /><br />Thanks in advance - KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04269273256129740219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-38309695779284803762015-05-10T03:46:59.512-04:002015-05-10T03:46:59.512-04:00Have you tried turning the front of your skirt int...Have you tried turning the front of your skirt into three pieces so that you have seams instead of darts?
