    Description

    A wonderfully versatile sewing project, The Avid Seamstress V-Neck Top is the sort of handmade staple you'll find yourself reaching for throughout the year. With its relaxed silhouette, elegant V-neckline and beautifully considered finishing details, it offers an effortless blend of comfort and style. The clean neckline is finished with a structured facing for a neat, polished look, while the simple shape makes it endlessly wearable - just as lovely tucked into trousers as it is worn loose over jeans or skirts.

    Made up in Flake Off White by Atelier Brunette, this version has a beautifully soft, fluid feel. The cotton-viscose blend combines the breathability and comfort of cotton with the graceful drape of viscose, while the subtle textured surface adds depth and interest to the finished garment. Light and airy to wear, it's a fabric that feels every bit as good as it looks, making it an excellent choice for an everyday blouse you'll enjoy wearing season after season.

    This dressmaking kit includes everything you need to create your own V-Neck Top, making it a satisfying project for beginners looking to build confidence and experienced sewists seeking a versatile wardrobe addition.
