Trying to continue with the fitting of the bodice and the sleeve basic blocks, Edwardian edition. Sure, it's one thing to take off Autumn indoor clothes, put on the mock-up, then go stare at it and maybe put some pins or chalk in, take it off, put on actual shirt again, make some adjustments... But jesus fucking christ it's not made any easier with a clingy orange cat that demands to lounge in my lap between every step! I love him, but good heavens

Making the wrist bigger, not because I need more room for my wrist, but because my sleeve board isn't narrow enough to fit inside the sleeve if I go by my own actual measurements...

@sinituulia I use my tailor's sausage for ironing sleeves because the sleeve board is way too big, but 100% relatable!

(also, the sausage needs to be put in from the armscye side, because one end is too big to fit in the sleeves anyway)
