Having figured out how to do the neckline of the chemise to match the picture, I am now remembering why I rarely draft my own patterns. I can’t use a raglan sleeve cut as the picture shows the sleeves way too full for that. Now I need to draft an armscye on a gathered shoulder. Am now on try 4 and it’s not looking good – and this is *before* I cut any fabric. Good thing I have a lot of pattern drafting paper. I’ll keep trying.
