Well, I didn't manage to cut out the coat toile, I decided the fabric wasn't as suitable as I first thought, so I'll have to find something better - something I can make marks on, and which drapes like the 'proper' fabric.
Instead, when I got home, I cut out the dress bodice, and have nearly got it sewed together. From what I can see though, it looks a bit big. Lilya is quite petite, and very slim, although she has had a bit of a growing spell.... so, we will see when she tries it on.
I'll put some pics up later, but up to now it's gone together very well. I'm using the Burda 5148, with a small alteration to the shape of the bottom bodice.
More later.
