Dear Sewing Superstar,
I love a wardrobe update, but I don’t like the expense. That’s why I like sewing my own — plus, I know the shirts I sew will last. Need some inspiration for your own wardrobe update? Check out some of the patterns in our Easy Shirts to Sew Collection!
Breezy Summer Tops
Make a beautiful shirt you’ll love wearing all summer long. Our Daybreak Spring Boho Top has flirty, flouncy sleeves and a cute peplum. This pattern will be a breeze for advanced beginners and beyond.
How about a figure-flattering top with vintage vibes and a modern design that’s totally customizable? Make our Summer Breeze Boho Top in a woven fabric for day wear, or dress it up in satin for some evening glam that will leave people wondering where you got that great designer top! Customize this top to fit your personal style.
Our Sapphire Summer Peasant Blouse is a timeless classic shirt that perfectly captures that summer feeling. Enjoy the romantic and effortless drape of this peasant blouse in your favorite color. This full and flowing top will take you from the beach to a night out with ease.
Or make the Heartbreaker Cropped Babydoll Tank. This flirty babydoll tank top instantly dresses up your favorite pair of jeans, and it’s perfect with a light jacket for those cool evenings of early fall.
Need something cozy and comfortable for cooler days? The Aspen V-Neck Sweater Pattern is an easy wardrobe update! Simple and sophisticated, this sweater looks great on its own or layered over a coordinating tank.
Upcycled Style
At our house, the general rule is you can never have too many tee shirts. They’re comfy. They’re convenient. They’re everywhere… When it’s time to winnow the t-shirt collection, take your tee game up a notch with a little style (and not a lot of work!).
Make our Pastel Perfection Upcycled Tank Top and breathe new life — and style — into a tired old tee. Transform your old t-shirt into a dreamy tank top. Give your summer wardrobe a refresh with something “new” — upcycling for the win!
What about that plain old t-shirt that you’ve had on standby forever — you know, that extra one you bought to layer with other shirts? Why not dress it up with some easy, eye-catching applique? Our pattern for the Take Flight Upcycled Applique Top gives you step-by-step instructions to transform that t-shirt from basic to beautiful!
Flattering, comfortable, and zero-waste? Get it all with the Sunny SoCal Relaxed Summer Tee. The square neckline, loose fit, and cropped length make it an excellent option for wearing over a tank top. Best of all, though, this easy pattern will only take you about three hours to make. You could pull out the sewing machine now and have a fun, cute top to wear to dinner tonight!
So Many Fun Styles!
From upcycled tees to easy athleisure wear to a beautiful basic button-down and more, there’s something for every sewist in our Easy Shirts to Sew Collection! Which shirt will you sew first?
