Sewing pattern: Add sleeves to a store bought dress

March 28, by Anne Weaver. Leave a Comment

Sewing tutorial: Add sleeves to a store bought dressHave you noticed that most dresses in stores are sleeveless?  It can actually be quite difficult to find a dress with actual sleeves.  Heather from Heather Handmade shows how you can add sleeves to a dress.  Her tutorial includes instructions for adding them to a sleeveless dress or to a dress with shoulder straps.  When working with ready-to-wear, you’ll have to get a little creative with finding fabric for the sleeve but you can usually find something that’s a close enough match.
