Black and gold jersey top

Top in jersey cucito da me

I’ve sewed very very slowly lately, but I’ve manage to make something new from time to time.

How can you manage to sew with a little baby? I choose very easy projects and in jersey, like this black woollen top with golden polka dot embellishments, the last garment I sewed!

And I sew in my very few spare time moments over the week or weekend, when Matilde is out for a stroll with dad or grannies ( my house is a creative mess on the other hand, but I have to admit that I’ve never been good in keeping it tidy!).

I tried to sew while wearing her with a baby wrap or carrier, but she loves when I walk while she’s close to me in the carrier/wrap. So we go out for a long walk usually!

Sewing jersey garments with serger and coverstitch machine is very easy and quick. I made this top in a couple of hours. It’s a very basic garment, that I love and I’ve worn a lot in these days.

The fabric is a remnant from a textile firm in Como that closed down last year unfortunately. It’s a beautiful woollen light jersey embroidered with golden polka dots (I’ve got the same fabric in burgundy and pink too).

I wanted to make a long sleeves top for winter, but I hadn’t got enough fabric to sew it (it was a very little scrap), so I made a top for spring. I used an old pattern I drafted on my measurements that I used three years ago to make a Birthday gift for a friend of mine.

I took these pictures in an extraordinary warm day of February! Even if it’s winter, I felt like it was spring because I was fine in a sleeveless top.

I would love the pattern for this! Do you have one or a link to the one you used? It is so beautiful and just the style I am looking for!
