    Hello! That tutorial will probably give you good results. What I would suggest in your case, however, is that you open up all the seams at the bicep to allow the gaps to show you where it wants more room. You can probably give the extra space at the seams by adding a little more seam allowance, especially at the seam along the shoulder and top of the sleeve. Does that make sense? I think it will save you some time and allow you to avoid making another muslin. I’ll keep watching here in case you have further questions!

    • Thanks for responding. I did wonder about adding more seam allowance because of the way you drafted the sleeve and gusset but it seems like such a different technique from the usual methods ie the linked tutorial or fitted sleeve Full bicep adjustments.
