Been a few weeks since I shared last, I was recommended to start from scratch so I did that and the result came out much better first time. This is the first toile, though there are still slight issues.

To address CF seam angling, seems it’s due to my shoulders being asymmetrical. This block will be used for jackets so I’m not going to be making asymmetrical adjustments to the pattern, I assume with more ease this problem will fix itself

The only issue I can see needs fixing is the wrinkling below the armpit. I assumed armhole was too small so on the right side (as captioned) I have dropped the armpit by an extra 1cm and slightly widened the armscye however this hasn’t solved the issue, and for some reason has created the gaping at the back I was trying to fix in my previous post.

Apologies for no measurements on the pattern, it was traced so I hadn’t written down the numbers

I hope the constant posting isn’t frowned upon but I stumble upon roadblock after roadblock.

To me issues that stick out are:

-slight gaping on back armhole, still present after adding a back shoulder dart

-upwards diagonal drag lines coming from back armhole

-gaping front neck (the CF seam isn’t fully done as my head doesn’t fit through the neck otherwise)

-unsure if the side seam is in the correct position

I’ve attached the pattern as well.

As you can see, there is another issue wherein my front armscye is longer than the back. The CF follows the paper pattern not including the extra piece of paper stuck on, which I’ve added in post to try and decrease the length of the front armscye, but it is still a whole cm longer.
