ALERT!!! There is finally a pattern for a cross over shirt for busty girls! I repeat, fellow busty ladies you officially have a shirt designed for YOU!! Wahoo! This shirt is the best fitting crossover I’ve ever tried on, let alone made. It’s also one of the easiest patterns to make! I knocked out my second shirt in an hour and fifteen minutes from cutting to finish. It fits like a dream, easy yo make, and has a million iterations….what more could you want?!

Such a versatile pattern, so many options, fun to sew and a delight to wear. Smart enough to be dressed up to go out but comfortable enough to be dressed down for everyday.

This is brilliant as a nursing top! Took me less than 2 hours to make, from print to hem, and love that it keeps me warm while nursing. The built in cami is awesome!
Allison Tierney –
A very easy and flattering pattern! I love that it can be both a casual top and a nice dress.
Emily Schimelfenyg –
An easy and relatively quick sew with beautiful results! I love the different options and the fact that it’s nursing and maternity friendly. It’s so nice to not have to hack a pattern for nursing access.
Hannah Goulter –
This is a great easy maternity and breastfeeding friendly top, definitely a staple in the pregnancy wardrobe
Claudia Broos-Pauli –
I love this pattern, easy sew and perfect fit! Perfect for new, busy moms (and all other woman)
Hildur Gudmundsdottir –
Finally there is a cross over top that is not too revealing for us busty gals! I do not need to wear a top underneath and will not have to worry about it being to showy. Been wearing mine constantly since I finished it. It was a quick and easy sew and I see many more in my future.

Love this dress! Comes together easily and very flattering!

There are so many options for this dress, it’s amazing.
The crossover can be ruched, not ruched, short / medium / long sleeves, different hem lengths. Given the style you can use different weights of fabric to create totally different dresses for each occasion. I used a 14 oz. black cotton lycra to make a mini with flat front for date night and a thin rayon spandex with great drape to make a dress for my Grandma’s memorial event.
I was surprised by how easy the dress was, especially the top. I would say it’s great for an adventurous beginner. If you will follow instructions, don’t skip steps and understand a zigzag stitch – YOU CAN TOTALLY MAKE THIS.

I felt a little hesitant going into making this dress as most dresses I have attempted to make in the past have never turned out well. With this dress, however, I had nothing to fear! The instructions were really easy to understand and the pictures for each step really clarified what I had to do. It was such a quick sew as well! I managed to complete it within my son’s 2.5 hour nap!! The dress is so comfy and I’ve received so many compliments on it. This is definitely a pattern I shall be using over and over again!
