Gores at sides...no evidence for front and back ones
I make my arm holes about a hand bigger than the arm pit about 4 inches
No charlotte, no fancy tailoring yet
the order I sew in is
1 shoulder seam..if you haven't cut in one
2 sleeve top seam
3 from wrist to hem in one seam
4 neck facing
material about 30inches wide at the time...wide enough for front and =
back.
I cheat like mad and machine stitch all the hidden seams..there are five =
sets of kit to make for my family and the kids will grow:)
I put ths on list as others seemed interested
hope this helps.

    Hazel & all the other talented ladies & gentlemen...
    In making my tunic, how deep are the armholes?  I know they aren't =
set in, but how deep should I make the openings?
    When you sew these, do you generally lay everything out flat & sew =
all the outside seams this way?  I mean... laid out in a double T =
formation?  [Drat!  I know this isn't making sense & I don't know how to =
make it any better.]
    Do you generally have gores front & back as well as on the sides?  I =
cut them out, but haven't made a seam line in the center front & back.  =
Should I have that seam line anyway?  How wide is the fabric available =
at the time?  900AD or thereabouts...
    Write off-list.  No need to clutter it up w/ my inept descriptions! =
<G>  Jennifer whose duct tape double is looking worried
