Create the Perfect Summer Top: A Quick and Easy Sewing Project

September 19, 2025 by Shellie Wilson

Tina is a summer top pattern, is the easy two-hour project I’m sharing with you this weekend. The trend this summer is to wear bike or yoga shorts. Personally I find it awful, however, I can appreciate the practicality of this trend. It allows people to bike everywhere and teamed up with the right top and a small jacket it can even make it as an outfit for casual Friday’s at the office.

An A-line sleeveless top that you can make in two hours. This summer top pattern comes in sizes 8-20 and will cover your bottom. Made in a very flowy silky fabric it can be the perfect companion for riding back from the office.

This summer top pattern should be a staple in your collection. Cinched around your waist with a belt, tucked in with a pencil skirt or just on top of bike shorts or capri pants will be a very practical item in your wardrobe.
