The dress muslin

I began my work on Vogue 8491. I got the initial paper pattern marked up. I'm doing a muslin. The initial pass was rather loose thru the hips, I had to go back and taper it some:


I've still got some more fine tuning to do, but am pretty pleased with it. I raised the armhole by 1 inch but I'm going to lower it back, and will add a little more ease thru the waist. Well I guess enough sewing on the muslin for the night.

I'm looking forward to the extended weekend so that I can sew.
