    Assembling the pieces was going smoothly, after all it's my fourth time
    doing it, until I pinned the back yoke to the back body assembly. I
    discovered my back yoke was about 1/2″ too short. It must have happened
    when I had to make modifications to the action pleat after I took an
    inch off the shoulder seam. It seemed to work OK on my muslin so I'm not
    sure why it's too short here. I'm going to stretch the back yoke just a
    little (not the full 1/2″) and then I'll make the sleeve seam allowance
    just a little shy of 3/8″. Hopefully that will do it.
