Friday Pattern Company Collins Dress & Top Sewing Pattern PDF

The Collins is a quick and satisfying sew with options galore! Sew it up as a top, short dress, or tea length dress. The pattern also comes with two cup size options as well as low or high (bra friendly) back options. The Collins is designed for knit fabrics and has an integrated shelf bra. It is form fitting without being too tight. The dress hemline features a slight A-line sweep. This is the type of pattern you’ll want to sew again and again!

A physical print out of the instruction booklet will NOT be included. You can view the instruction booklet on your device at home, print it out at home, or add the 'printed pattern instructions' product (see link below) to your order and we will print it for you.

Fabric

The Collins is designed for knit fabrics. You will need a fabric with at least 25% crosswise stretch. It looks great in jerseys, rib knits, ponte knits, scuba, and more! If you are sewing the dress version, a fabric with a bit of body will hold the shape of the hem nicely.

Notions

1.8m of 19mm-26mm elastic (for the shelf bra hem)
