VLOG 220 Behind the Scenes with Angela Wolf – Rachel Twin Set sew-a-long ~ Part 4

Today I walk you thru cutting a double collar, adding a touch of yellow to the coral twin-set.  This is not part of the pattern, but you know I LOVE patternhacks!  Adding yellow to the collar will tie into the tank top, which you will see more about next week.  

Working on the tank top, you will find a tutorial on choosing size and adding a full bust adjustment.

The Bella Knit Top Sewing Pattern

The Bella Knit Top Sewing Pattern

The Bella Knit Top

Another easy pattern to sew with a neckline twist!  I designed the Bella Knit Top sewing pattern to be sewn with knits for comfort and coordinate with A Touch of Couture Lace Embroidery Collection, Regardless if you add embroidery, this knit top is trendy and easy to sew!  slightly fitted in the bust area and looser in the waist and hip area with a flattering curved hemline.  Different than my other knit top patterns, this one has a v-neckline with facing instead of a ribbed collar band. 

Although there are two sleeve options, I named the pattern after the bell-like sleeve which is fitted in the bicep area and then bells out in the wrist area, hemmed with an elastic casing. 

I have sewn this version with rayon jersey knit for the body and mesh for the sleeve.  The short sleeve version offers a loose, flowing sleeve and a chiffon fabric is a great choice.  I am just finishing a few more Bella Knit Tops and will share photos next week with a few tutorials on sewing and embroidering this trendy top.

The Bella Knit Top sewing pattern is available in instant digital download format or the paper version with spiral notebook mailed to your home.  

 

NOTE:  The Bella Knit Top PDF version is included FREE with the The Touch of Couture Embroidery Collection.

The Shirley Faux Wrap Dress & Top

I designed this pattern as one of the wrap style dresses and tops for season 19 of It’s Sew Easy tv. The Shirley wrap can be sewn as a top or a dress.   Because the style must pullover the head, this top must be sewn with a knit.  

There are many versions in this pattern including sleeveless, short sleeve, and long sleeve.  Then you have the option of sewing a top or dress.

This top is easy to sew and perfect for beginners!  Here are the details:

The Shirley Wrap Top & Dress #AW1913

A stylish faux wrap knit top and dress.  

  • Available in Misses Sizes 0 – 18 and Plus Sizes 16W – 36W
  • Skill Level: Beginner
