I kept it longer and added extra ease for a cooler, more floaty top during our oppressive Florida summer days (and nights).
After hemming the tulip sleeve sections with my coverstitch machine, I basted them together as shown below by the red line, to form a "normal" sleeve that I inserted flat instead of in the round per the Jalie instructions.
LOVED YOUR OLD POSTS ABOUT MAKING JEANS. THANKS FOR ALL THE GOOD IDEAS AND PICTURES.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Clever approach to the sleeve as well! Thanks for sharing your great ideas.

Fabulous top! It looks great with your capris and thongs. ;) Another winner. You have to love instead gratification.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Of course I meant "instant gratification". The morning coffee hasn't kicked in yet. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice top. Very nice, in fact. I guess this means you got over the Sterns capris!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty fabric and a cute outfit. The green is popping!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very cute top. I love the colour combinations
ReplyDeleteCute top, I really like the tulip sleeves.
ReplyDeleteI did the same with those tulip sleeves. It was really helpful when I made a small top for my cousin's 6 y/o daughter!
ReplyDeleteVery cute top! Love the fabric and the sleeves are so nifty!
ReplyDeleteLove this top. Debbie I enjoy looking at your projects bu I have a question. Where do you find such a variety of knit fabric? My local stores carry such drab knits my choices are very limited.
