making continued.

I used binding to attach round the raw edges of the cuff hole, and into the neckline, for a neater finish and to avoid rolling hems. Also, the binding was necessary for the cuff holes because it was impossible for me to do a french seam, because i could not turn the sleeve through.

The box pleat on the back of the garment was a flash of transparency, a contrast of fabric and drape, and adding movement and shape into the garment.
