I love blocking, this is the best way of using up leftover scraps and having something unique in the bargain!!
My version of the Paneled Sheath
Not looking that happy in this pics :(
The sizing was bang on, but I did change the original sleeves to make them cover the underarm.

I agree with liliv. I don’t like the original sleeves bands that come with the pattern. I’m actually finishing up my own version of this pattern and I got rid of the sleeve bands. Your version is very nice. Great color combo and I love your sleeves which fit perfect and look much better than the original ones.

Fabulous! How did you make these sleeves? I like the dress pattern but I don’t like the huge sleeves, I don’t want it sleeveles either … yours are so sweet!!!

No pattern piece was supplied for the sleeves, just instructions how to make. I had seen previous versions and wasn’t to fussed about how they looked. I just measured the circumference of sleeves and went from there!
