Beginner Sew a PJ Top

Beginner

Meet your new favourite top.

The Usefulbox PJ Top is a relaxed, V-neck tank with clean facings and a beautiful finish — and while it started life as a pyjama top, it looks just as good with your favourite jeans or out to lunch on a Sunday.

In this one-day workshop you'll sew this simple, elegant top using the Usefulbox original pattern — designed right here in the studio by Megan. It's the perfect next step after a beginner course, giving you new skills and a genuinely wearable result.
