[Loch-Ruadh] Need advice on making German sleeves

[Elizabeth Hawkwood]

She might try backing the fabric with iron-on interfacing
to give it a little body. Satin (button hole) stitching around 
the opening might also help. 
Either way, I suggest trying it on a separate piece of  test 
fabric, first.

Subject: [Loch-Ruadh] Need advice on making German sleeves


Our friend, Mouse, is having problems sewing German
puff and slash sleeves.  She says that as she is
sewing them, the slashes start angling in.  Does
anyone have any advice on how to avoid this?
