It's all about the sleeves.

There's a current trend for tops with what I call "enhanced" sleeves... may it be bell, tulip and such. I thought it was about time I sewed one.
Pattern is McCalls7542 (worn with Gap shorts and Adidas sneakers)



In progress:



This McCalls pattern comes with varying sleeve shapes. Check it out!
So many options!
Are you guys a fan of this type of top?

Haha, enhanced sleeves! I love that you're talented enough to create your own. You did a wonderful job. Would love to see you try the B pattern, if that's your style.

Look at you, looking crazy cute. I’m loving that shirt, ‘enhanced’ sleeves are all the rage right now. I can’t believe you made this, I need to learn how to sew.

I love the statement sleeve trend although with two toddlers I've been fairly certain it would never work for me - I have to dodge stains often enough, never mind having sleeves to get caught in messes, haha! I like this shorter statement sleeve style - much more practical but just as pretty :) You did a great job making this, it's incredible! :)


Hope you are having a wonderful weekend :)

Oh my gosh! Love! I bought a shirt recently with sleeves like this from ASOS but returned it because it didn't fit me right, but I loved the sleeves so much :)
Statement sleeves are definitely the thing Emmy! Love your top! Looks so good on you. What a great pattern.
