Heyhey,

I reviewed the pics and noticed it were quite a few so I will split up the sleeve slit in 2 parts and put the lining in between both parts within the next week.

first I sewed the sleeves seams, the one at the sleeve slit 1cm below where the additional fabric for the slit is placed

fold the shorter end in a straight line down from the seam, put the bigger end ontop and fold it over 1cm (or what you use as seam allowance) before the edge of the lower  one

sew the seam allowances together on the top end

the both sleeves should mirror each other

also pin and sew the sleeve seams of the lining and keep the area for the slit open

pin both ends onto each other, matching the check

and cut the end even

now take each end, fold the hem allowance up and iron

pin a pin through only the top layer do mark where seam allowance and hem allowance end

fold it open, see how the pins move far away from each other?

then fold over, right side inside, pins laying on each other

mark a line from where the ironed folds cross to the pinned parking

and sew

then cut the fabric back

iron the seam allowance apart and turn around

one clean corner, repeat the same with the other corner and the corners of the other sleeve

looks pretty from the right side 😉

next time I show you how to make it look pretty inside with lining, too.

By the way, do you want a tutorial for how to add a open sleeve slit to a sleeve pattern?

If there are any questions for the steps until here please let me know!
