The infamous top

Added 2025-05-23 19:22:54 +0000 UTC

Wanted to post the pattern pieces I made for this halter top dupe. I didn’t record any of the sewing process cause I had no idea it was gonna turn out on the first try so if anyone wants a more in depth version I can make another sometime!

Key points are that you wanna sew the chest pieces together first, and then lay them down in between the two waist band layers (good sides all together) so that there’s only one seam visible in the end (the back seam).

That and when you’re sewing across the top of the waist band and the two chest pieces, make sure you stretch the waist band and sew across the inner corner of both chest pieces before you sew this whole thing. That’s what keeps the joining spot clean and flush.

I used a sort of stretch/athletic style fabric I got on clearance at joann’s a year or so ago (rip joann’s)
