Botany Top and Tunic - Digital Sewing Pattern
The Botany Top and Tunic is an easy, throw on style with a dartless bodice and extended shoulder. The neck and sleeves are finished cleanly with facings, but include alternative instructions on how to do a bias bound finish.
The top version has a relaxed fit and finishes below the natural waist.

SIZES AVAILABLE:
A to N (see size chart in images)
FITTING NOTES:
The top has two cup size options - a B cup and a C/D cup.
To find your sewing cup size, measure your high bust and full bust.
The difference between the two measurements will tell you your size.
Eg: 2.5cm/1 inch difference = A cup
5cm / 2 inch difference = B cup
7.5cm / 3 inch difference = C cup
10cm / 4 inch difference = D cup and so on
I highly recommend making a toile first to work out any fitting alterations you may need,
before cutting into your chosen fabric. Make sure the toile fabric is similar in weight/drape to your main fabric.
