I think this will work.

Muslin 3.1 actually did end up too small; I blame the stretchiness of the Muslin 2 remnant material after 4+ try-ons. But even with that, the fit on Muslin 3.1 was vastly improved. The back in particular looks quite good. Not perfect; but I've really done all I can do there without taking another approach entirely, and I have no desire to start over. And honestly, at this point I'm ready to move on and make the beading templates over it. I can tweak the bodice itself if needed after the beading is complete.
Changes included correcting the shoulder seam angle again, and taking out a dart in the back. I'll need to add some material to the back armhole as well since it was a bit too far back. Release the back darts by 1/8" apiece. Adding material on the center front to fix the overall snugness, which means moving the front darts over so they're roughly still centered. Mostly simple, and I'll make another muslin to make sure it's still tolerable.
Whew, I'm tired. I need to go eat something, and then do some cleaning. I'm hosting the end-of-year party for Impressions after our concert tomorrow.
