A shelf bra option is also included.

I just completed my first (but definitely not my last!) SummerBasics Dress. It out of athletic knit from Pinecrest and I added the shelf bra out of power mesh. It’s a replacement for a much loved dress from Title 9 that has sadly gone missing in our move.
Such a wonderful and easily assembled pattern. Thank you!

This is the perfect basic tank pattern. I made three this summer – two from rayon lycra and one from bamboo lycra. The scoop is the perfect depth with great bra coverage. The FBA option is greatly appreciated.

I have made 4 dresses and 2 tanks from this pattern. This is my all-time favorite summer pattern.

This pattern is really fun and quick to sew. I made 2 in a row and I love both of them! I made the knee length dress and can’t wait to make the tank!
