Sewing a bell shirt: Pure happiness!
The shirt with a high recognition factor: MAELYS bell shirt is characterized by a generous, wide-swinging cut that is not only easy to sew but also looks stunning in every size.
The pattern is designed for soft-draping, smooth fabrics and is guaranteed to put a smile on your face while you sew it, want to bet?
Celebrate your favorite fabrics: Bell shirt Maelys is just perfect for that. With its swinging cut, it’s not only super comfortable but also brings joy while you’re sewing it. It’s just sewsimple-style and truly easy.
As a bonus, I’ll show you how you can easily sew a cool 3D appliqué.
By the way: Even if you don’t have much sewing experience yet, don’t worry – you’ll manage this shirt with no problems at all. The flat neckline is neatly finished with a facing, which ensures a beautiful, stable shape.
Sew it using light, stretchy fabrics – and of course: with lots of love 🧡
These fabrics are suitable for SewSimple bell shirt MAELYS
Light, stretchy fabrics with a soft drape are perfect, for example:
For the shorter versions, or if you want to emphasize the babydoll shape, you can use stable fabrics. If you prefer the shirt to be more form-fitting, I recommend smooth-draping, soft, elastic fabrics such as viscose jersey or similar. The beautiful block stripe ponte* is from Stoffe-Hemmers, by the way.
