The new and improved nightgown!!
Well, I have started working on making my own version of the classic Hanro nightgown.
https://shop.hanrousa.com/product/hanro-valencia-long-sleeve-gown-76988/?color=
So I ended up buying the closest styled nightgown pattern- Kwik Sew 3980.

So, I decided to use some 4 way knit from my stash and am working on the muslin of it along, with a nice lace lingerie elastic. I cut out the large size.
Did not need the darts on this at all. It's way too big!!
So, now I have pinned out the side seams on it and have started marking the adjusted side seam, with a sliver of soap.
As you can see, after marking the RSS, I have thread traced on top of the new line..
