Aida Top Pattern

Finding a top that goes with everything from jeans, slacks or skirts can be difficult. But the Aida Top will cover all those styles. With two variations to choose from, flat front or slightly gather bodice and back, you can pair the Aida with just about anything. Wear it loose, tucked or even belted. Easy enough for a beginning sewist it is completed with buttons and buttonholes on the smooth fitting neck band, or omit the buttonholes and it is still easily slipped over your head. The slightly lower back hem means you can move with grace and confidence.
