SINAI TOP AND DRESS PATTERN

£25.00

Sinai is an effortlessly stylish A-line dress or top that you can tailor to suit your personal style. With multiple options to play with — including a round or V-neckline, several strap finishes (ties, buttons, elastic, or clean and simple), and three different lengths — Sinai is the ultimate mix-and-match project.

Wear her as a flirty summer top, a short everyday dress, or go for full drama with the elegant maxi length. Add side slits for extra movement or keep it simple and streamlined. The deep scoop back adds a touch of sophistication, and optional center seams offer a fun way to incorporate topstitching or make the most of solid-colored fabrics.

Whether you’re heading to the beach, layering over a turtleneck for fall, or sewing your first garment, Sinai adapts to your wardrobe and your sewing level.

Sinai looks completely different depending on your fabric choice. Choose drapey wovens like viscose, Tencel, or crepe for a soft, flowing result. Prefer a bolder silhouette? Go for denim, corduroy, or cotton canvas — especially if you want a structured pinafore to wear over a shirt or tee. Lightweight cottons and linens are ideal for summer-friendly versions.

Working with a print? Consider placing the front and back on the fold to preserve the print’s continuity. Using a sheer fabric? Add a lining by doubling the front and back bodices, adjusting the hem length and stabilizing the edges with stay tape.
