Hi Kate,
maybe it´s easier to manipulate the lining and
outer shell as one like described here:

Dear list,
I have at last started on a long-planned project
to make myself a 17th-century jacket (for when I
need extra warmth). I'm using a pattern from
"The cut of women's clothes" that has triangular
gussets in the skirts. Now, as a
not-very-competent needlewoman, I'm finding it
difficult to get the points of the gussets to
fit neatly. I'm only working with the lining
material as yet, and have only tacked the pieces
together. Can anyone offer any advice before I start sewing properly?
With thanks,
Kate Bunting
