Women’s Brenda is a quick and simple knit dolman top and tunic. Includes sizes for 30″-60″ chest and 34″-64″ hips. Loaded with options and an extremely flattering fit that is a slim fit through the hips. Brenda comes in both a solid front option or a button front option. For the solid front option, choose from a scoop neck or a low plunge V-neck in either a straight top length, curved top length, or straight tunic length. The curved top length extends past tunic length in the back for optimum coverage. All top lengths may be mixed and matched with each other for even more looks. The hemmed button front option is a faux button up top that ties at the front hemline. Choose from top length which hits mid hip in the front or high low length, which hits above the high hip in the front, perfect for those high waisted jeans! With 6 different sleeve options, Brenda is the perfect top for all 4 seasons. Choose from short sleeves, fitted 3/4 or long sleeves, ruffled sleeves, or a relaxed fit, cuffed long sleeve with or without the ruffle sleeve layered on top.

I love the Brenda top! I have made three versions so far, and I love how I can get different looks by using different fabrics. I am an intermediate sewer, and I am able to complete the pattern with no issues. Next step is to buy the bundle and make a matching one for my daughter!

This is the perfect pattern for fall! I was intimidated looking at all of the beautiful photos of the completed shirts, but once I got started I realized the directions were very simple to follow. Thank you for such a well thought out and fashionable pattern!
