Per the narrative instructions in barbs book, I came up with the following split.
Waist: ( Apron = 23") ( Pleats = 21" )
Hips: ( Apron = 23") ( Pleats = 25" )
I've got a beer gut, and a bubble butt.

Does this split sound O.K. ?
Im getting antsy to start.

Sounds ok in the waist.
I would use Hips: (Apron = 24") (Pleats = 24")
Having more in the apron will help the pleats lay better for your dimensions.
Good luck,
