Took out the pattern and fussed with the straps and the armscye &#8212; that seemed to give a much smoother fit over my stays.<\/p>\n<p>The muslin and lining versions looked nice, so I risked it and cut the fashion fabric. Sewed the top edges (bag lining, thankyouverymuch) and hand-sewed the armscye in.<\/p>\n<p>Folded back and pinned the sides to judge where the lacing should be. Gave a little bit of a gap, just in case it turns out too loose again (or in the incredibly off chance I lose weight in the far distant future ;-). It&#8217;s easy enough to put a placket underneath the lacing.<\/p>\n<p>Now the bodice is all set for some hand-bound eyelets.
