Matchy Matchy High Tide Set

Buy the High Tide Set sewing pattern from Matchy Matchy Sewing Club. This vintage inspired top and shorts set is breezy and chic with just the right amount of girlie. 

The View A top is a simple wide crew neck with micro puff sleeves. View B also includes a simple front button placket and sweet Peter Pan collar. The top can be sewn in a cropped length that hits at the natural waist (shown in the photos) or full length (3.5" longer).

The high waisted shorts have a cinched elastic waist and two wide front pleats creating a flowy, A-line silhouette. In-seam pockets are the finishing touch on this comfortable and sophisticated set.

Sewing level: Confident beginner (View A) / Intermediate (View B)
