Sleeve inspiration // making a stylish straight sleeve with double flare
Hello everyone
A lovely morning to you all this beautiful morning, the weather is cold out here as I so feel like staying in bed all day but this cannot be possible as I have a lot to achieve today.
In my making of an outfit, after cutting the whole bodice of the dress I intend to make, it is the remaining fabric that will determine the type of sleeves to make and I'm cases where the fabric will not be enough, I buy additional matching material to complete the sleeves, except in some cases where the style is giving just as this.
I was to make a skirt and blouse with sleeves a combination of a straight and double flare sleeves to begin with, I cut out the skirt and blouse bodice and set it aside as there are lot of work to be done to complete the outfit.
I decided to cut and sew the sleeves first to make my work easier.
To make the sleeves
First, I cut out a basic sleeve of 10" and used the sleeves circumference measurement to cut out the double flare where one is bigger than the other, I cut out same shape of lining to turn it inside out for neat finishing.
The double flare were sewn together to the bsic sleeve and finally, I have my stylish sleeve ready, this is set aside for the blouse to be completed.
