I Need A Little Help




This is Muslin n° 2 of Butterick 9214, a 50's housecoat pattern with which I want to make a great big red wool winter coat.
I am not entirely dissatisfied with the muslin save from the fact that it's way too small for a winter coat. How do I add the necessary ease? How much? Where? Do I cut through the middle and widen it? I don't know how to do this, so I'll take advice if you have any, or a link.
You can visit my blog for more information on the project. Thank you all so much in advance.
