Now, if you are putting your sleeve binding on and then sewing the sleeve seam, do it now.

I am going to put a "seamless" binding on mine, like on a quilt so I am going to go ahead and stitch my sleeves and sides shut.
Start at the sleeve and just stitch all the way up to the arm pit and down to the bottom edge.

I LOVE my serger for this!

One thing to keep in mind: this does make a slightly narrow sleeve. If you have large arms, you should measure before you stitch it up. You might want to make your 3/4 sleeves.

I pin the cuff, the arm pit, and the bottom to make sure they come out even
