This was a simple top to draft and sew up and it’s very comfy! ย It’s basically just a simple dolman top pattern which I drew a style line through and created a yoke. Then I slashed and spread the bottom portion of the top piece and created fullness to create some gathers.
I used an Anna Maria Horner print form the Little Folks line in voile. So glad I finally used it because I’ve had it over two years now.
ย If you are interested in trying this pattern let me know. I have already graded it, and it’s such a ย simple to sew!
This print is AMAZING!! And it fits you perfectly. Very good work.
Thank you lauren!
LOVE the cut of that top! Please share!
Justine,
This top is so cute! I love the color and the print AND those gathers. I can’t wait to start making things for myself, but I’m not there yet. I’m making costumes for my girls this week and I’ve never even sewn a dress! I’m pinning this to ‘sew for ME to wear’ board. ๐ Have a great weekend!

I love this pattern. After years of searching and trying to understand my body I have found tops that work for me. I am broad shouldered but narrow…make sense…? So this top helps even me out and it sits well on me. I would like to try this pattern…how much is it?
Thank you…and I love love your fabric

yes! I want the pattern!! SO cute!!! I think I could adapt it to fit me if it wasn’t quite the right size… Emily@nap-timecreations
Thank you Emily. Send me your email and you can test it for me if you would like
I would LOVE to test it! nap-timecreations@hotmail.com thanks!
Your blouse has been haunting my thoughts. We would all be thrilled if you shared, I know I would be.
Look good Justine!!! Yes, please share the pattern with us ๐
I would love to make this top. Beautiful. Could you email me the pattern too? What fabric did you use? It works beautifully.
Justine, so cute!! I love the way it looks on you!! I’m busty with broad shoulders so the yoke or gathers seem to sit in the wrong place when I wear a top like that. I never thought to make my own. I think I don’t sew much for myself because I hate sewing muslins and making adjustments. Fit issues make me feel like a mutant. You are kicking but on pattern drafting! I’m enjoying your draping series a lot. I can tell you’re really pushing yourself creatively- I feel like you’re on the verge of something big. Idk how to explain it, I’m not psychic or anything, but you have that “never stop learning” attitude that God just loves to bless. Keep on:)
Thank you so much Amy! Wow. That is really ecciting about your intuition. Hope it’s true!
WOW! I love the look of this. I would totally try this pattern out. I love tops like this.
This is sooo cute and looks great!!! What would you rate as the needs level of sewing experience? I would love to give it a try. Where can I find the pattern? Thanks for sharing! I’m excited to try!
I would love to try this pattern!
That is very stylish and flattering. I would love to give it a try if you don’t mind sharing the pattern
Thanks
You look awesome, Justine!
This top is so cute and flattering. I would love to try making it if you still need testers!
I love this top. I have a hard time finding ones that fit my larger chest without making me look like a big box. Would it be possible to receive the pattern to test it. If so, any recommendations on where I might need to make adjustments would be great!
This is so cute! I have been look for a shirt to try for me to wear and looks like one I would love! It looks like you are emailing it, if so would you please send it to me?!
Thank you so much,

Love it! Such a cute look! Please share as I would love to make one!
I would love to have the pattern, I love it!
Thank you!
I would love to try this pattern if it is still available! I sew very little for myself because of my body shape, but this looks like it would be flattering and I love dressy t-shirts!
P.S. I absolutely love the fabric you chose!
WHAT a lovely top! I’d love a pattern – as I have some lovely fabric that I’m itching to use for something like this.
I would really like the pattern fo these top. Can I buy it or is it available somewhere. I would really appreciate it. Thanks. Aurelie
Love it! You mention that you’ve got a pattern. Any chance I could get it? Thanks!
I too would like to get this pattern. Where can I find it?
sorry i never created a pattern for it.
Okay. Actually I can probably create my own. It just looks so comfy. Is the fabric knit?
