✂️ Transform an oversized shirt into a beautiful blouse with this PDF top sewing pattern.

The Stockbridge Top is a creative and versatile sewing project—perfect for upcycling thrifted shirts while making the most of their existing tailoring details like collars, cuffs, and button plackets. Less tricky sewing - win win! There are so many options - with or without sleeves, multiple collar options and optional ruffle - you are the designer! Ideal for the creative mind.

🌿 Perfect for Upcycling

This clever pattern is designed to help you refashion large adult shirts into beautifully finished tops. By reusing features like buttonholes, collars, and hems, you get a professional look with minimal effort and easier sewing.

Thrift shops and vintage finds are ideal—look for larger sizes (17”–19” collar, regular fit) to give you enough fabric to work with. For sizes L+, you must use a large 18+” collar shirt.
