Inspiration...Basic Layering Tee

Do you sew basics that you will wear day in and day out?  I'm wanting to stitch more of this type of item.  Here's a basic tee:


This is the Nic+Zoe Countryside Top.  Price tag: $118.00.  This is their take on the classic layering tee.  Details:  v-neck with facing, long-tail with curved hem, loose-fitting, v-neck back with yoke shaping.

You need to look at this top to appreciate, I think.  You need to see the back.  Just head over to the Nic+Zoe website.  Now let's think about patterns:

This is M6964.  This pattern offers a variety of necklines and sleeves which makes it versatile.  It doesn't have the faced v-neck but the v-neck is good.  The hemline would need to be dropped a little and curved.  Make use of your french curve.

If you have a t-shirt pattern already fitted, use it.  Just remember that a v-neck is not really a straight line.  Use the french curve.  Have fun!

Happy Stitching!
