The flutter sleeve is an absolutely adorable choice for toddlers' clothing! Similar to the puff sleeve, the ruffle element makes this sleeve fairly straightforward to insert, even if you're relatively new to sewing. You have options for finishing the edges too, - either with bias tape for a clean look or simply turn them under.
