    I made it 3 inches narrower and maybe an inch or so shorter. The hardest part was being sure all the pieces were shrunk the same! I also just did both sides of the inside pockets the same. Divided the strip into 3 parts. The next time, I will use thinner batting. THe author suggests a specific kind but I couldn't find it locally, so just used what I had on hands. It looks great but was hard to sew through multiple layers of fabric and batting.

    I am sorry--I don't know. I bought it in Albuquerque, NM last fall. I think the pattern was called Indian Jewelry, but not really sure about that. Sorry to be so little help.
