FAQs
What kind of fabric should I use?
Knit fabrics work best for the Evie Top. Consider jersey, lurex, or other knit fabrics that have good drape and a comfortable feel.
Are seam allowances included in the pattern?
Yes, all seam allowances are included in the pattern.
Can I use a serger for the seams?
Yes, using a serger is an excellent option for sewing knit fabrics and finishing seams. Make sure to adjust your serger settings to match your fabric type.
How do I choose the correct size?
Take your measurements and compare them to the size chart provided on the pattern. Choose the size that corresponds to your measurements or consider grading between sizes if necessary.
What if I make a mistake while sewing?
Don't panic! Use a seam ripper to carefully remove the stitches and resew the seam. Practice on scrap fabric first if you are unsure about a particular technique.
How do I care for the finished top?
Follow the fabric care instructions. Generally, wash in cold water with a gentle detergent and either air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Where can I find additional sewing advice?
Look online for sewing tutorials and forums. Style Arc's website may have additional resources or tips.
Troubleshooting
The top doesn't fit properly.
Double-check your measurements and compare them to the pattern size chart. Make any necessary adjustments before cutting the fabric.
The hemline is uneven.
Ensure you are cutting the curved hemline accurately. Use a curved ruler or template to maintain the correct shape.
Seams are puckering.
Adjust your sewing machine tension and use the correct needle and thread for the fabric type. Consider using a walking foot for difficult-to-handle knits.
