The redingote has sleeves now. All thats left is a hem, capes, buttons and the inner bodice. Maybe a cuff ruffle? Its in my inspo image. But my hands seriously cant take much more fine work. I was starting to have trouble grabbing the needle. How am i supposed to manage 3-4 caps if my fingers cant do the fine stitching they need?

I picked up jp Ryan's cap pattern last year, which is written for machine construction. I think i might try it out just to see what it looks like.
