Lauren's Thora Top in Bougainvillea Blooms Embroidered Viscose Linen

I made this version of my Guthrie & Ghani Thora Top using our exclusive Bougainvillea Blooms Embroidered Viscose Linen. I love how the simple, relaxed shape of the Thora really lets the beautiful embroidered flowers shine, while the V-shaped placket and little cap sleeves give it those extra special details.

If you'd like to make your own, you'll find your shopping list below. Included with the pattern instructions is my Thora Top Tips video to use alongside the pattern instructions, with lots of extra guidance to help you along the way.

Lauren's Notes:

Fabric choice: This viscose linen is light and breathable with a lovely soft drape, while the embroidered blooms add beautiful texture without making it feel too structured.

Styling tip: I love wearing mine with simple linen trousers or shorts to let the embroidery take centre stage, but it looks just as lovely with your favourite jeans.

Difficulty level: A lovely confident beginner to intermediate project with some really satisfying details to sew. My Top Tips video is there to guide you through the trickier bits too.
