Buy the Child/Teen Jente Dress and Top sewing pattern from WISJ Designs. This pattern screams summer! Jente is a tank top for both boys and girls. Choose the cool straight version or go for a more feminine A-line with a curved hem. For an extra girly effect, you can add ruffles that run down the front and back. Jente can also be made as a dress with a gathered skirt. At the back, opt for overlapping back panels with a low cut. Add ruffles here too to make it all the more summery and romantic. Or go for the basic version front and back. There are three ways to finish the seams at the neck and arm openings: concealed binding, exposed binding or hem.

This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats:

Suggested fabrics: Jente is designed for stretch fabrics. Think tencel jersey and bamboo jersey for the version with ruffles, as these fabrics drape beautifully. Regular jersey also works well and even french terry is a good match with this pattern. The binding can be cut from ribbing or from the fabric itself, as long as it is sufficiently stretchy.
