About the Campsie
The Campsie Top is a simple, relaxed woven top that's a simple sew that you could easily fill your wardrobe with. The multiple cup sizes and bicep widths ensure a that it's easy to get a great fit for your body.
Sew your Campsie Top up in linen or cotton (like Leila's Campsie here) to elevate a casual look or in silk or a drapey fabric like satin-backed crepe (like my green Campsie) for a luxe addition to your work wardrobe.
The Campsie has a jewel neckline, set in sleeve, and button and loop closure at the back of the neck. We opted for a neck facing, because we think it's the best way for beginner and intermediate sewists to get a consistently clean finish.
The Campsie is a great beginner project, which is designed to teach you a variety of sewing skills.
Fit Intent
This pattern is designed to be loose fitting and features elements specifically designed for plus size bodies.
• The shoulder seam should hit about 1/2” (1.3cm) outside of the acromion (point of the shoulder) to allow for better sleeve hang on plus size arms.
• The dart apexes are placed further away from the bust point than in straight sizes to accommodate the increased width of breast tissue in our size range.
If you'd like more info on this- we do a deep dive into darts, and talk more specifically about the Campsie in one of our weekly chats, both over on Patreon
