Linen Look Remy

A review of Sew House Seven Remy Raglan Top

Reviewed by mahlicadesigns on 23rd June, 2021

Fabric: 100% cotton with a washed linen look. With the medium weight cotton, the top doesn’t drape close to the body instead it stands slightly away along the hemline.

 

Pattern details: I sewed a size 12 (39in bust) based on my 39.5in bust size, taking advantage of the generous ease to cover the small difference. The top fits well and I’d make this size again in other fabrics.

The Remy Raglan is an easy and straightforward project to put together. French seams are used throughout for a nicely finished interior, the neckline is bound with self fabric, and hems are simply double folded. Even with the added time to sew French seams, the project comes together quickly.

To make the sewing process even easier and to add an interesting detail, I used a checked bias tape from my stash instead of the self fabric to finish the neckline edge.

I highly recommend the pattern as it fits very well, the instructions are professional, and the style is easy to wear.
