Join Loren in making the Collage Gather Top View A. The perfect beginner garment sewing pattern!

The Collage Gather Top is a classic box top with a twist. Designed to be sewn as a patchwork or with a single fabric, it is easily customizable and comes together quickly. This versatile top is slightly cropped, hitting just below the natural waist, with gathered side panels and 2 sleeve views. View A is a simple cuff sleeve. View B has a 3/4 length drop shoulder gathered sleeve finished with a sleeve band. In this class we will be sewing View A which is a great beginner pattern. This a perfect blouse to start your journey sewing garments.
