As mentioned previously, trhe fitting did not go especially well. Where I had allowed a lot of fabric in the seams, it seemed that I hadn't, in spite of using the same pattern as last time and allowing a hefty amount so i could cut it in.

Only the back seam needed to come in quite a lot for shaping, which was perfectly fine.

The armholes didn't sit correctly and needed big adjustments, which took up so much extra time. I think I'm on the right track now, but it's a snug fit. The style of the kirtle means it's supposed to be a snug fit, but now I'm worried that the lady will tear it in her haste to undress rather than undoing the lacing right to the bottom and carefully wriggling out of it.

Time will tell, I guess.
