When I transfer the design, I won't use the existing lines along the flowers- I'll transfer the center curvalinear design, and then do the lines with rulers, so they're all even. :)
The shirts and smocks that are my inspiration pieces are slightly late for me, being 1590s-1610s, instead of my preferred period of 1570s, but there is at least one painting of a woman in a fitted loose gown with embroidered smock sleeves underneath. However, that design is a geometric latticework, not a mix of isolated motifs and floral bands.
