This was a really easy item to scale up and put together. The patten is based on the traditional (fabric saving) pattern. It would work well for Renaissance through the early 19th century. It’s basically a series of triangles and squares. You might need help picturing how to put the underarm gussets in. Look at pictures in the book. Remember that you’re folding a square in half into a triangle shape. I used French seams on all of the seams and sewed a bias strip to the neckline to form a casing.
