I've changed a few things on this one. It's a few inches longer and I have to put a back gusset in along with the two side gussets. The side gussets are right triangles and the back one is two right triangles that I will sew together. The fabric is a beautiful dark green cotton. It is a bit shorter than 4 yards so I had to finagle just a bit. Hey, no problem, it was free (thank you Kate).
Today I got all the pieces cut out. Front and back pieces, two bell arms and four right triangle gussets. The neckline is a bit more square.
I trimmed the neckline and then covered the back top with bias tape. Then I sewed the shoulder seams together. I turned the piece right side out and sewed the back neck down. I then pinned on and sewed the sleeves onto the body. Not bad considering all I intended to do way cut it out today.
