Sleeve Length Alterations♪

Good morning☺️
Thank you for always reading♪
I'm so happy to receive your likes🩷, follows, and comments☺️
I'm also full of gratitude for all the magazine additions🙌💕

I usually wear long-sleeved blouses made of thin fabric to protect myself from the sun when I go out.

Maybe it's because I've gained weight recently, or maybe it's because I'm sweating from the heat, but the sleeves feel tight😅

I decided to shorten the sleeves to about elbow length, so I snipped the shirt cuffs with scissors✂️
I folded the cuffs and sewed them with a sewing machine.
Then, the belt strap (what do you call that?) used to hold the sleeve in place when rolled up became loose...

If I shorten this strap, I'll have to make a new buttonhole, so I wondered what to do🤔 (what a hassle), but I went ahead and made the buttonhole to finish the alteration☑️

Oh😅 I should shorten the sleeves on this blouse too.

I alter my favorite (old) blouses several times so I can keep wearing them.
Other than T-shirts and 👖 underwear, I hardly ever buy clothes🤭
Yet, my clothes keep increasing😉

For this one, I also snipped 5cm off the sleeve length, added 5cm of thread, and sewed it with the sewing machine to finish☑️
No matter how hot it is, at my age, I worry about my midsection if I only wear a T-shirt when I go out☺️
I wear something over it to cover up and try to look at least a little bit slimmer🙄

That was today's alteration〜(￣∇￣)

Just how many years does she intend to wear me?🙄 (a blouse's monologue😇💕)
