Gemma Sewing Pattern is HERE!
Gemma is here!! I’m so excited about this tank pattern, and clearly many of you are as well! It has a clean, sleek cut, beautifully fitted shoulders and bust darts, and an attractive curved hem. This is one of those garments that we can put in the “staple” category, but there’s something about Gemma that’s more special than that. It’s so versatile and comfortable and flattering; I’ve been wearing my test versions constantly this summer, and I’m sure I’ll layer them under cardigans for all the cooler months too.
Gemma is the second of my “Presto Patterns” collection. The idea behind Presto patterns is that they are simple and easy to make, drafted and tested with the same level of care as the rest of my patterns, but include more abbreviated instructions and only one view rather than multiple views (read more about Presto patterns in this post).
Gemma is available as a PDF sewing pattern, which includes print-at-home pages as well as copy shop files (in both A0 and US formats), just like the rest of my women’s digital patterns!
I’ve put together a Gemma Page where you can find all of the blog posts and related tutorials (coming soon!) for Gemma.
In the shop listing, you’ll find additional photos, plus all the charts for sizes, finished measurements, and yardage.
I’d love to see what you make with the Gemma Pattern! Please use the hashtags #gemmatank, #madebyrae, or #raemademedoit on Instagram and Twitter to share your photos, or post pictures of your finished pants to the Rae Made Me Do It pool in Flickr and see what others have made! I also have a Made by Rae group on Facebook now, so if you’d like to join and be a part of the sewing community there, please request to join!
