Project of the Day -- Sleeve deviltry

I have been swearing so badly at the sleeves of the striped polonaise today. I swear, either the sleeve or the armscye always contrives to shrink or grow in between draping and cutting out and sewing in the actual sleeve. This time the sleeves shrank. *shrugs* I used to be able to make sleeves that fit, I promise!! Cue more piecing. And heavy sighs.

Not doing it today, though. That particular project has been thrown on the I Am Pissed Off at You Heap in disgrace for now.
