Concern for fabric that might be to short :(

I have some people that are using the Serenity Harbor 32ct linen Fabric from Fabric Flair. The cut of 40.5 inches is looking Ike it might be to short. There should have been 5.7 inches left over from the length which would be a little short of 3 inches extra for the top and bottom....but is still not working out correctly...I believe there might not  actually be 32 threads per inch in the fabric and people are starting to notice they will be coming up short at the end. ..so I have made an alternate design for this issue.....we don't want to stitch all over again :(
Here is a photo of the alternate design that I have decreased by 24 stitches.....the original design has a stitch count of 557 and the alternate has a stitch count of 533......which if you are using 32ct this will give you an extra 1.5 inches.....If anyone thinks they might need this alternate please email me and I will gather names and email addresses. I am going to work on one more alternate.....that could take of more length....I just need more time. We will work all things out for good....no worries :)

  2. I don't have a problem with the bottom, but I really like what you did with the alternate. I might just use that instead of the vase.
