got it! Ok, well, there’s a couple of ways to do this. The pattern is just half of what the final fabric piece needs to be. So what you can do is cut out pattern piece #3 on a single layer of fabric and then use the remaining fabric to fold and cut out your 5 and 4 pieces. Or you can pin, for example 5, on the single layer fabric, trace around it using fabric marker or chalk, then unpin it, flip it and butt up the “fold” side next to the chalk line and repin. As long as you end up with 1 fabric piece that’s twice the size of pattern instead of two separate halves of the 5 pattern piece it’ll be fine. Hope that helps.
