Merchant & Mills : The Edie Top & Dress Pattern
The balloon sleeves of this simple top and dress are the only detail that it requires to stand out. Less is more.
The full sleeves are gathered with a tie which is threaded through a buttonhole, alternatively you can omit this buttonhole and insert elastic instead.
Skill Level: Intermediate.
Sizes: This is a multi-size paper pattern that comes in two size ranges, please ensure your selection reflects desired fit.
*See images for more sizing information and fabric requirements.
Suggested Fabric: Lighter weight woven fabrics, linen and linen blends, poplin, hemp and hemp blends, cotton chambray, Indian handweaves and block prints, tencel and tencel blends. The more structured the fabric the more sculptural your top will look.
Additional Supplies: matching thread
All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.
