In this lesson, I taught how to transfer the muslin shirt pieces onto pattern paper and make necessary adjustments before drafting the sleeves. I demonstrated truing the side seams, adjusting armhole curves, and lengthening the shirt hem.

Lesson Steps:

• Transfer muslin pieces to dot paper tracing the final lines
• Mark important reference points like center front, shoulders, waist, etc.
• True the side seams by folding and matching them
• Smooth out armhole curves if needed
• Adjust hem length as desired at front, back and sides
• Separate front and back bodice pieces
• Label each pattern piece with garment info and grain line
• Measure actual armhole lengths and compare to original measurements
• Prepare to draft sleeves using the updated armhole measurements
