Hourglass Patterns that have been regraded from size 6-28.

It's been a busy winter for me.  Here are the patterns that I have regraded for my new standard sizing.  Plus,  I spent lots of extra time tweaking them for an even better fit.  Over the years I have gained much experience working with my drafting software and with that I've developed stronger  skills at grading and keeping true to the original design as I bring it from a size 6 to a 28.  However,  all this close up viewing of each pattern has given me a great opportunity to add features, change features, rewrite directions and really improve from my old formats.  These patterns are modernized in every way.  It's one skill to develop a pattern for yourself, it's a whole different set of skills to offer sizes 6-28.  Grading is a set of rules you need to follow strictly.  But in the end, at the very last punch, it's more art and less science.
