You want the perfect fit?

There is nothing more frustrating than when a homemade garment ends up fitting poorly. That’s over now! Because when you take the time to sew a garment yourself, you deserve it to be perfect. That’s why our sewing patterns are now also available “Customized to your measurements”. How does it work? Order the option “Customized to your measurements”, measure yourself according to our instructions and enter your current measurements in our form. Our designers then construct your individual pattern. You will receive it within 1 to maximum 2 weeks after filling out the form as paper pattern or digital pattern by email and can start sewing without fear that your garment will not fit in the end as expected.

Required materials

• light to medium weight stretch jersey fabric, e.g. organic cotton jersey at a fabric width of at least 138cm (1.5yd):
  XS-L: 70cm (0.77yd) | XL-XXXL: 75cm (0.82yd)

  Tip: We use a medium weight GOTS certified organic cotton jersey made of 95% cotton and 5% elastane with a weight of 200g/sqm for the Cara Top.

Size chart for standard sizes XS-XXXL:
Find the perfect size for you simply by using our size chart. Measure your chest, waist and hip circumference and check the chart to see which size most closely matches your own measurements. For the Cara Top, pay particular attention to the bust and waist size. But since the top is elastic, you don’t have to worry if you deviate a little here and there.

Video tutorial
You can find the matching video tutorial here. If you’ve never sewn before, watch our sewing machine basics video tutorial first. There you will learn about the components of a sewing machine and how to sew your first seam. The Cara Top video tutorial is the same as the Liza Top. The only difference is that you work the armhole exactly like the neckline with binding. Except from that, follow the same steps.
