Sewing Sleeves using the flat method

12/29/2019

0 Comments

 
I made another McCall's Pattern M7975 with this beautiful watercolor floral Dolce & Gabana fabric I purchased at Elfriede's Fine Fabrics in Boulder, Colorado.

I adjusted the pattern instructions to allow for a flat method sleeve construction.  When I'm sewing with knits this is my preferred method.  It's easier to sew something flat rather than setting in the sleeve with the sewn side seams.

Knit fabrics allow easing in the sleeves a cinch!  Watch the video below and you'll may be converted too!
Happy Sewing!
