You're right, it has!
I just found the very last pattern in Alcega, on the folded sheet...
Woman's silk skirt and bodice with full-length pointed sleeve
Sounds like I hit the jackpot!
I can't make sense of the sleeve pattern though... I think I'll have
to make a small paper mockup. I'll let you know how it turns out!
When you make up the narrow, inner sleeve, you might like to know
that the inner seam, the one that runs inside the elbow, is whipped,
on the outside, with a fairly hefty "gold" thread. I saw this
painting somewhere, took a photo of the sleeve, but cannot now find
it. It was very unusual, I thought.
