Barring small tweaks (gotta take in the waist of the trousers, put in buttonholes for cufflinks and create ditto) the Lucy!Master outfit is done. I'm going to wear it out to a party tonight and see how it goes over.

I'm... moderately pleased with it - despite some really dumb mistakes on the end-run. I'm still getting used to what it looks like in the, er, flesh, and so I'm still getting used to me in it. The roomie says it looks smashing, but she's a kind-hearted sort. Time will tell, I suppose...

I'll adjust the pants, today, but the shirtwaist I'm leaving alone, because it's (paradoxically) a bit small along the bottom edge (it rides where it does because I can't pull it any further down my hips) and I'm afraid I'll aggravate that if I adjust it any more.

Almost certainly, it's too big across the back, in general - that's my usual issue with patterns: too small in the cup and too big across the back. Apparently, a 38" chest means you're built like the proverbial brick outhouse...

And NEENER back atcher, luv.
