March 30, 2024 notes

• Making trousers
• Working on extending Noble to be able to adjust the upper shoulder curve.
• Designed a new Simon one-piece, tower sleeve placket. Need help extending the FreeSewing design to add this new feature. A big part of this will be the documentation changes to explain how to construct the garment.
• Simon's existing sleeve placket instructions need to be improved, too.
• Modifying Wahid to take bust measurements into account.
• Sewing your first pattern.
• Finishing a new FreeSewing design.
• The Jane 1790s Shift design PR has been filed and is ready for review. (new design): Adds Jane, a 1790s shift pattern.  #6437
• Extending Teagan to draft using high bust, perform a full bust adjustment, and add side seam and hem shaping.
• Breanna splits waist circumference for side seams and doesn't take into consideration difference between waist front and waist back. So, the side seams end up in the wrong positions. This is probably a bug that should be fixed.
• The next meeting, April 13, 2024, is the first one after Europe switches to Summer Time. The meeting time changes back to the usual hour for most United States and Canada folk. The meeting time also changes to one hour earlier for those who don't observe Summer/Daylight Saving Time.
