Modern Sewing is a source for beautiful, spare and modern clothes. UK designer and founder Hetty Adams studied at the London College of Fashion for a degree in Fashion Design & Development, and found her love of pattern cutting. She interned in London and New York and after launching a pre-pandemic retail fashion brand, decided to focus on patterns for home sewing. Flattering and classic, all of her garment patterns are wearable and beautiful and destined to become wardrobe staples.  Through fabric choice, version choice, and finishing details you can make something beautiful, useful and uniquely yours.  

This Modern Sewing Co pattern is a digital pattern. You have the option to choose to have the pattern sheets printed by us for $7.00/page (choose either pick up or shipping when you check out).

After purchase you will receive a email with a download link for your purchased pattern.

You can also purchase an optional printed copy along with the digital pattern. The price is calculated from the number of A0 pattern pages included.

Included in the PDF is the following:

• A4/US Letter print at home file
• A0/copy shop file
• Instructions

The Boatneck Top is a fitted jersey pattern which means it needs to be paired with a stretchy fabric. You can use a jersey with an elastane blend or a fabric knitted with plenty of stretch. For a wearable wardrobe basic we recommend using a lovely lightweight jersey in a fibre of your choice.

Important - Modern Sewing Co is designed and based in the UK and based on UK size standards. Do not go by your usual size, take your measurements and choose your size based on them.

UK sizes fit at least a full size smaller than North American sizes.
