    I would change te seam allowance to 3/4 instead of 1/2 to leave 1/4 inch from the seam. I think this would make it more durable since they tend to continue to rag for the 1st few washings.

    Thanks it's hanging in my sewing room and growing on me, plus some of the wrinkles seem to be hanging out.
