Step 5Sew the tail
Turn the tail section wrong side out.
Center the seam of the sleeve on the top, so it bisects the sleeve. In this case, I used the wide portion of the sleeve to make the point of the tail, but if necessary, you can take down the width of the entire section to fit your previous piece.
It's kind of hard to see the stitching on this picture, but basically, pick point "A" in the center of your sleeve. then pick a point close to the top of your sleeve (where it connects with the body) to finish the triangle ("B"). Sew from Point B to Point A, then back to Point B. You'll want to curve it out a little bit for a more organic look.
Trim the excess, and turn the tail rightside out again. Should look nice and pointy!
