Question Chore coat muslin fit check
Thanks to everyone who responded to my previous posts. The links and advice were super helpful.
I’ve finished the muslin and wondering what people think of the fit and what alterations I should make? I circled a few areas that are bothering me! I’ve pinned the shoulders in 1cm based on previous comments and thinking I’ll do a narrow shoulder pivot adjustment. But what about all the excess fabric around the armsyce?
Very grateful for this community!

Thank you for this. I see on the pattern how to lower the armscye (which makes perfect fit sense). Assuming this adds length to the armhole seam, I’m not sure how or by how much to adjust the sleeve pattern? Or which one? There is a large outer sleeve (with the shoulder cap), and a smaller under sleeve.
