FREE SEWING PATTERN: Scallop top

FREE SEWING PATTERN: Scallop Top

Well hello there!

Thanks again for visiting my blog.  You guys always make my day 🙂

If this is your first time in our blog, remember to check our FREE SEWING PATTERNS page.

On that page you will find our collection of free sewing patterns for women, kids and men.

You can also visit our SEWING TUTORIALS and our SEWING REVIEWS.

We also have an ETSY STORE, where you will find unique and modern sewing pattern for women.

I am happy to introduce my Scallop Top today.
I wanted to make a scallop neckline for a while, so I am happy to see it coming to life with this design.I, first, thought about a dress…but it seems to me as it went to vintage looking; nothing wrong about it, but it was not me completely. I believe that the top makes more sense to my own wardrobe.  In any case I added the dress for you if you would like to try it as well 😉

This top was made in collaboration with Fort Worth Fabric Studio.  They have been great supporting my blog and giving me the opportunity to make this project. 

The fabric 

I have decided to work with Confetti Dot Grass by Dear Stella.
The fabric was great to work with and it helped to complete the vision I have for the top.

Materials
Printed patterns
Matching thread

Printing Instructions:
This printable PDF pattern is assembled BY OVERLAPPING THE PAGES 1/2 centimeter.  That will make it easier to assemble and avoid further fitting issues.The pattern comes in letter size paper.To print this pattern, go the PDF document. Select  FILE — PRINT.
This will be the layout of your pattern:
The top

It will print 16 pages.
Wait until all the pages are printed before taking them from the printer; it will make it easier to assemble.When finish printing, place the pages as the layout below. Then use tape to put them together. Now cut the pieces.
The Dress


This will print 32 pages, but you can surely skip from number 27 to 32.

Picture


Sometimes, there are problems with the printing process and the patterns come in the wrong size (a little bit smaller).  To avoid this, check the 1 inch square inside of the front bodice pattern. It will help you to see if the patterns are the correct size.
The PDF pattern comes in sizes from 4 to 22 (US Size). If you have any doubts about the sizes, please refer to the body measurement chart above.The colors for each size are:
Size
4:  Black
6:  Red

10:  Blue
12:  Orange
14:  Purple
16:  Yellow
18:  Pink

    Thank you for the lovely pattern. There seems to be a step or two missing from the instructions though. I am in the process of sewing this shirt right now and a bit confused but I’ll get through. Thanks again!

    Hello ! Thank you for this very pretty pattern. The neck is very charming.
    But I have a question. Since this garment looks fitted, with darts and all, how do you enter into it ? Is it intended only for strechchy fabrics ? On most women, the bust is larger than the waist. I see no zipper on side or back. Thank you for your help.

      Hi Noelle,

      Thanks for your comment. I am sorry for the inconvenience. The pattern should definitely have a zipper on the back. If you want to do that, I suggest to add 1/4 inch seam allowance to the back bodice.

      I will be checking on that pattern.

      Happy Sewing!
