After getting the DTD all cut up I laid out the pattern for one arm on the cheap fabric. Got a good trace and cut it out. Just for some test fitting I sewed it up quickly and tried it on. My hand would not fit through the wrist. I ripped the stitches out and tried again leaving less extra fabric on the outside of the arm. Still no good. This small failure has taught me quite a bit though. I think for the arms and most of the legs I need to do manual measurements and go from that.

If nothing else this suit building will be a learning experience. Now I just need to find stretchy thread.
