Thank you for sharing. I had it pretty much figured out in my head BUT, never would have thought to iron it first and apply it quite that way. Thanks so much, now, off to cut away!!!!!!!!

Now why didn't I think of that? I just did my first one and I cut 1 short sleeve and 1 long sleeve layer and basted them together to act as one sleeve. Duh! Yours looks great.

This tutorial is great but I'm confused by one step (I downloaded so I saw the pics). When the short sleeve and long sleeve are serged together, isn't the short sleeve going to be less wide than the long sleeve? Do you stretch it so they're the same width or let the long sleeve edges hang off the sides and center it? What am I missing here?
