Sew House Seven Remy Raglan Top

Buy the Remy Raglan Top sewing pattern from Sew House Seven. The Remy Raglan is a simple top with a relaxed fit that is quick to make and easy to wear. This top was originally designed to wear under the Burnside Bibs and with the Free Range Slacks during their respective photoshoots. Many customers inquired about the top and so it became the Remy Raglan pattern.

This top was designed to have the sleeves rolled up and it should be noted the sleeves look best that way. The fit is very loose and relaxed at the bust and waist, and while it is not a cropped top, it is a short top designed to be worn with high waist pants and skirts.

The original design is version #1, plain and simple. Version #2 offers a little visual interest at the front with a split centre and keyhole button closure. There are two sleeve options - short sleeves and 3/4-length sleeves - and both work with either version #1 or version #2.

Bonus: The Remy pattern now also includes a romantic gathered sleeve! If you have an older copy of the pattern, you can download the Gathered Sleeve Expansion here for free. 

Note: Use the Cross Stitching for Garments pattern to add cross stitch embellishment to your Remy.

Suggested fabrics: Light weight woven fabrics that are not too stiff such as linen, linen/rayon or linen/viscose blends, cotton voile, silk noil, sand-washed silk and cotton gauze. Be aware that one sided prints do not work for the rolled-up sleeves. Be sure that the front and back sides of your fabric are presentable.

This top was originally designed for very light weight linen. While it can work in a variety of light weight woven fabrics, this top is the perfect, simple backdrop to let a beautiful linen shine. If you choose a more rigid fabric such as cotton lawn, the neck may appear a little smaller and the bottom hem will be a bit fuller and not drape as closely to the body.

Fabric requirements: Allow extra fabric if matching stripes, plaids or using border prints.
