There are a few ways to set a sleeve. I set my sleeves with a bias strip of Armo-Rite. I didn't buy it, I've been recycling a couple of my husband's old ties. As you see, the bias strip is placed on the the wrong side of the sleeve cap and sewn 1/4" from the edge.
Note: While sewing, make sure that the edge of the sleeve cap stays next to the 5/8" marking on your machine!![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tcVO9yaOkCA6TtzuAB2XkiN98FArfsQLpaEpFbzflvYYIUGd1XwxEd9DnIAg-ciHag399z9gwAAWyyDmHdvapRpe-UdOC_Yg_kIpCfVbA6kNIM8fHR5fD2flPmWDo=s0-d)
I used a catchstitch to make my 1 5/8" hem on the sleeves.

I also added 1/2" shoulder pads.

And here is the finished sleeve!
