Admit it – we had you excited when we said Free Women’s Top Patterns! We have searched the internet for you and gathered together the best of the Free Sewing Patterns for Tops out there. We all love a freebie, don’t we? Sewing something new, which is also free can be a little treat for everyone.
We have tried to give you a variety of pattern styles and fabric types, so there is something for everyone.
We hope you find one that takes your fancy.
The Camellia Top – Mood Fabrics
The Camellia Top is such a sweet and romantic silhouette. We love the puff sleeves and the gathering throughout the bodice and sleeves. It can be made from a variety of fabrics to achieve different looks.

Chelsea Linen Raglan Tee – Fabric-Store
The Chelsea Linen Raglan Tee is a great alternative to jersey t-shirts. The delicate pleating at the neck makes the style very feminine. This tee is made in gorgeous soft linen which would be beautiful to wear in the warmer months.

Zero Waste Shirt – Schnittchen Patterns
The Zero Waste No. 2 pattern is one of those great patterns that starts from a rectangle. We love the modern look of this amazing top, which also comes with a matching bag from the leftover fabric.
Uvita Top – Itch to Stitch
Everyone needs a go-to jersey top and we love the minimalist style of the Uvita Top from Itch to Stitch. It is a relaxed, dropped-shoulder top that is designed for maximum comfort and style. It also comes with long sleeve and three-quarter sleeve options.
Plantain T-shirt – Deer & Doe Patterns
The Plantain is a classic free women’s top pattern that we have sewn ourselves in the past. It is fitted at the shoulders and flaring at the hips, with optional elbow patches. It’s available in short, long, and 3/4 sleeves included in the pattern.
Wrap Top – Peppermint Magazine
We love the look of this trans-seasonal wrap top from Peppermint Magazine. Again this is another woven fabric made in a modern minimal style. We love it with jeans in the image but we can imagine wearing it with lots of separates, we might need one in every colour!
The Drop Sleeve Top – The Avid Seamstress
The Avid Seamstress says that The Drop Sleeve Top is the perfect first project for those who have just learnt to sew!
The Drop Sleeve Top is a relaxed fit top with a drop sleeve that finishes at the elbow. The back is finished with a simple button and loop with a facing. Perfect for any beginner!
Hera Top – Wardrobe by me
The Hera Top is a great summer top pattern. It’s a sweet, feminine peplum top with a flutter cap sleeve and soft elasticated waist. The neckline has a facing, and the lower part of the armscye is finished with binding. Another great Free Sewing Patterns.

Basic Instinct Tee – secondo piano
The Basic Instinct Tee is a pullover style, relaxed silhouette t-shirt with short sleeves, crew neckline and a straight hem. It’s the perfect shape to wear as a base layer, for working out, or as sleepwear.
Morning Glory Top – Sarah Kirsten
The Morning Glory Top is another great Free Sewing Patterns. It is a simple and fun shirt to sew and wear. It can be tied in the front or back and pairs well with high waisted pants or skirts. We love that sexy open back and can imagine this would make a great top for a special night out.
