My friend gave me a cut of 60"x70" linen in a natural sand color. I know it's not quite enough for anything proper, but I have been working on piecing together something that resembles an under-tunic.
My new linen, a coarse woven sand color. |
This is a very very crude drawing on my plan:
My very quick drawing on some scrap paper from the sewing room. |
Notice the 16.5" mark on the sleeves, that is going to be a problem very soon. I wanted my sleeves to be cut 16.5" in total, that should make this measurement 8.25". Good thing I am making a muslin.
Here is me first noticing that the sleeves are wrong:
You would have thought that I'd notice this during marking. |
Anyway, I'm off to go photograph some of the fitting problems, and draft up some changes. Maybe by the wee hours of tomorrow I'll actually have cut into my linen!
