Sleeve Coming Along

Got the first centre band finished last night. While it works up pretty quickly, I think next time I will do a less compact design. Even though I am using small stitches, the flowers especially are coming out a bit blocky. So next shirt, I am going to come up with a better, less complicated design, which will work up quicker but keep the denseness. I also got two motifs done, these work up really quickly and give great impact. I think the combo of the bands and the spot motifs is going to work really well. The only thing I am thinking now is about cutting down the amount of work in the back and front, since most of it is going to get covered up? I did about 3 hours last night.
