Basting in Sleeve for first fitting

I've been struggling with basting the sleeve. Whenever I try to add the fullness so that the two back pitches match, I keep getting pleats. Does anyone have any tips for basting in the sleeves?


I measured the length of the armscye (23 13/16 Inches) and the sleeve cap (26 3/8 Inches) which gives 2 1/2 inches to ease in. Is this too much fullness to get in the sleeve?

The back pitch is irrelevant. The front pitch dictates the hang of the sleeve. Drop the back pitch and pass the fullness underneath
