I have sleeves!!! And a zip!

And it wasn't as difficult as I had anticipated. Having said that, I didn't really follow the instructions. But it looks all right. My problem is also that I can never find the notches in the fabric...

I also put in the zip - but I won't show a photo, as it doesn't look great. But it works! I used this tutorial as the pattern instructions of course made no sense at all to me... Taking out the center seam only took forever! Why sew it to then undo it again? There surely must be another way. Not least as unzipping the seam made the fabric all curled up.

The other problem is that the top is too big. I've already taken in the darts in the back a bit more, but it's still a bit too baggy.
