Our sewing pattern Top Diana is an ideal introduction for sewing beginners. The tank top with a large round neckline is suitable as a summery pajama top or simply as a simple undershirt.
Length at center back = 60-65 cm
Diana was sewn from jersey in this pattern.
Required material:
We recommend a soft jersey, as opaque as possible.
Sizes 34-40
-
Outer fabric 0.90m (140cm wide)
Sizes 42-50
- Outer fabric 1.00m (140cm wide)
cutting:
Cut out the pattern pieces from your outer fabric. Lay the fabric right side up. Lay the selvedges parallel to the center so that you can lay the front and back pieces in the fold. The pattern pieces should all be face up. Always align the grain arrow on all pieces in the same direction and parallel to the selvage of the fabric. Transfer all the notches from the pattern through a 3mm long incision with scissors or with chalk and mark the ends of the darts, note that bust darts are to be processed from larger sizes. Pinch the seam allowance in the fold of the fabric because this is always a center. Markings define positions of dart ends, pocket positions, etc. Transfer these either with chalk or pins.
You need from fabric:
- 1x front part in break
- 1x back part in break
- 1x neck panel
- 1x armhole panel
Sewing instructions:
To sew this top you will need a sewing machine and an overlock sewing machine, alternatively you can use the zigzag stitch on your sewing machine to overcast the raw edges.
Be sure to use a jersey needle and use a stretch stitch, i.e. if you are sewing with a home sewing machine you should use either a zigzag stitch or the tripartite elastic stitch and then all seam allowances again with a zigzag stitch or another appropriate stitch neaten so they don't fray. In addition to the description, the colorful lines in the pictures show you where a seam needs to be sewn or something to be glued.
When sewing, pay attention to the seam allowance included in the pattern. Seam allowances that are not specially marked are 1 cm wide!
Happy sewing!
Sizes 42-50 have a bust dart, sew it down according to the pattern. A simple, straight dart is closed and sewn on the wrong side of the fabric, snap by snap, tapering from the widest point to the tip
Close the body by placing the side seams right sides together and overcasting the seam allowances. Press the seam allowances backwards.
Do the same with the shoulders of the top.
Fold the hem in and out twice and stitch it through the edge.
The panels for the armholes and the neckhole are closed to form a round, right sides facing, and the seam allowances ironed apart. Then sew the panel, right sides together, from the inside out at the neck and armholes. Press the seam allowance into the band.
Fold the edges of the strips 1cm over and iron them inside out, fold the strip outwards and stitch the edges tight.
This is what your finished carrier looks like.
