Here we have what is technically called a petal sleeve. Like petal, flower petal. Personally
I think it makes me think of like Tinkerbell, so I can't get petal right in my head. I think
of, you know, a little fairy costume because it actually is literally, it's called a petal
sleeve because it literally looks like the petal of a flower which to me, is just too
costumey, it's just too forced, too sweet. But if you are designing a little girl's party
dress, this would be a totally cute addition. You could even do it like in a gauzy fabric
and have it be see throughy with a backing of some sort. You could have, right here I
have it only having two petals, but you could do a fuller petal sleeve and you could basically
have it the center, if you envision, say, a sunflower and make the center of the sunflower
right here at your arm hole and then have the petals go around it, you can do a huge
petal sleeve where you would have petals and then petals and then petals and then you can
have it even more costumey than it already was. But go with the flow. Let yourself create.
