Well, I think I figured it out? My first pic I cut a box out of the dart perpendicular to CF. I saw another tutorial where they cut a box around the dart at a angle. Side seam much smoother now, will try another muslin.

hello,

I made a muslin with your Fira top pattern and noticed I need to lower the bust dart about 2 inches. I normally cut a box shape around the dart and lower it the amount needed. It seems on this pattern that if I do that it will also lower the armhole also. How to I lower the dart without affecting the armhole? Regards,Donna
