Radiation Suit front panel fit.
I have matched everything I have sewn to the pattern and all sewn pieces match the patterns. Pic Rad_Suit1 shows the front right pattern matches the sewn piece. Pic Rad_Suit2 shows the Center chest piece pattern covers 1/2 of the opening. Pic Rad_Suit3 shows that the sewn Center chest piece matches the pattern. Pic Rad_Suit4 shows the opening that is to be covered by the Center chest piece as you can see the opening in Pic Rad-Suit1 and the opening in Pic Rad-Suit4. In Pic Rad-Suit5 I laid the Center Chest piece into the opening and it does not cover the opening. Highlighted by red arrows and circled in yellow. If I pull the sides in to match the center chest piece Pic Rad_Suit6 I get a a bunch up of material in the crotch Pic Rad-Suit7. What's up with this? Is the pattern wrong somewhere? How do I fix this? The only solution I see is to redo the center chest piece and make it bigger.
Personally I think that instead of a big opening for the chest, if the pattern was changed and there was no opening then you can just sew the center chest piece on and make an opening for the zipper. Just a suggestion. ??????
