   Hillary, the type of pad to use and how to position is determined by the cut of the sleeve - regular set-in, raglan, drop shoulder, etc. If using a pattern, consult the notions area on the reverse of envelope under the yardage requirements. You can also determine this in ready made clothes by matching to a similar pattern in pattern book and consulting the notions. The easiest way to find out can be to ask someone who sews a lot to show you item by item, or ask someone knowledgable at your fabric store. Also, consult a good basic sewing book you have or ask at library for one. Bill
