Because of this , the design was altered . All the trim on the dress ( mostly the ruffles on the sleeves and skirt ) . I wanted to keep the aqua that I purchased within the design , so I altered the look to make the cuffs and the collar and all ' contrast material ' ( mainly inside the bell of the sleeve ) to this paler aqua . One other alteration from the sample done pictured on the pattern is the addition of the turquoise trim along the bottom edge of the bodice .

Question: Why is the narrator putting so much effort into the item ?
Answer: It is for a specific look .It is for a repair of the cuffs .It is for a sale .It is for a repair of the collar .
