Notes Started the mock up

Notes :
Again, I purchased with seam allowance and the fit is way to large. I will need to remove the seam allowance on the sides. I will also remove 5/8 in the middle of the back.
The back arm holes are gaping so I'm not 100% sure how I'll fix that yet...

    You can also separate the shoulders and pull the back pièce up. It is more work because the neck and shoulders have to be raised.

    My advice is the following.
    Make a seam in the back from the neck down....see shirt patterns back....and pull away the excess fabric so that the armholes no longer gape. You will them have a horizontal seam.
    The fabric you used for this pattern is very thinn maby is this the probleem.
    Good luck!

    I'm also looking forward to the instructions for repairing that armhole. :)
