I've cut out all the bodice pieces. I decided to sew boning onto the interlining of cotton canvas and I cut out the top fabric and based it to the interlining tonight! Tomorrow I plan to finish the bodice hopefully! here is my to do list:

-Sew Lining onto inside lacing sections
-Sew Lacing wholes all the way down the insides of the bodice
-Finish the boning on the left side of the outside bodice
-Bast left interlining and top fabric together
-Sew side seems and shoulders of top fabric
-Press seems out
-Turn seam allowance in and sew down, herringbone stitch apart from middle section and outter arms for sleeve attachments
-Sew lining into bodice
-Sew internal lacing thingy into the bodice
-Lace and measure exactly where the bodice needs to end on each left and right sides to not have a gap
-Measure out spacing for the hooks and eyes and sew in alternating

SLEEVES, may need further patterning
-Cut out straight sleeves and attach to bodice
