Hello there! I am very excited to share with you today about making the Beatrix Top from Made by Rae. This is my first Made by Rae pattern and I love it!! I was inspired by this lovely version of the Beatrix top, made in double gauze as well.

I picked a beautiful Double Gauze by Atelier Brunette from Minerva to pair with this pattern. The rust splatters in the fabric are my favorite!

I’ve found that I’m lacking dressier tops in my handmade wardrobe. After picking this top, I was excited to find lots of resources available on Rae’s website for the pattern. There is a Sewalong included broken down into eight days. There are also multiple versions of the top shown on Rae’s blog, with information about the fabrics selected.

There are some neat options included in the pattern. I wanted to share the pattern description:

“Beatrix is a button-back pullover top with a simple silhouette that is both comfortable and flattering.With two views that offer different sleeve lengths, button placket options, and a shirt-tail or banded hem, this is a truly versatile pattern for woven fabrics. Included are six sizes (XS-XXL) with two different front bodice pieces to fit either A/B or C/D cup sizes. This modern wardrobe basic is sure to become a new favorite!”

I also wanted to share the line drawings, size chart and meterage images as well for reference:
