Fig. (12) Facing the back edge of the sleeve vent
Cut the material for the extension one and three-quarter inches wide and about one-half inch longer than the vent. Fold under a seam at the top and stitch one edge of the extension to the slash as shown in Fig. 11. Note that edges of extension and sleeve are even at bottom, but that extension projects nearly a seam's width beyond the slashed edge at top of vent. Turn under the free side of the extension a seam's width, fold the extension through the center and stitch again. (See Fig. 12.)
