Two bugs come up again and again: lace trim disappearing while you apply it, and quality stuck just under 95 on Adora's last commission. The first has a workaround. The second doesn't yet.
Lace trim disappears when you apply it
Lace edging sometimes vanishes partway through, taking your work with it. Players get around it by pinning the lace in short bursts instead of one long run, so a glitch only costs the last few stitches.
If the lace stays but the requirement bar doesn't move, it isn't this bug: you've probably used ordinary trim instead of lace trim, which the game treats as a different item type (tips).
Quality stuck at 94 on Adora's last commission
Adora won't accept her last dress below 95 quality, and several players can't get past 90 to 94 no matter what. They recut every piece on the grain, resewed everything and even restarted the whole dress, and the number didn't move. Players who hit 100 in both sewing and fabric still got stuck, so it looks like a bug rather than a mistake.
Before you assume it's the bug, rule out the usual causes:
- Sew Assist is on in the settings, and you slowed down at every corner (S).
- Every piece is cut on the grain, not at an angle.
If it's still stuck after that, there's no known fix yet. Keep an eye on the game's updates.
