I'll rather send this to all so that everyone who is interested can order
something. Here:

I haven't tried their patterns before. I was in a rush and ended up using a
modified version of the bodice from Simplicity 7756 and the sleeves from8735.
They work well enough, but the back neckline of the bodice is quite high and
