Patron de haut et de robe Cielo

I absolutely love this top, and I have made a few different "hacked" dresses out of the top by sewing a couple of rectangles together, gathering them, and sewing them to the Cielo top. They are some of my favorite dresses and so easy to make.

Project had great instructions and was very easy to sew. My only wish would be to separate in two different PDFs the pattern for the dress and for the top. I made the top and have no interest in making the dress, it was a little painful to have to print 50 pages of pattern for a cropped top 😬

Chose this pattern because of the sleeves .. gorgeous.. first one made .. will definitely be making more

There's a reason this pattern is so popular - it's pure dynamite! Funny that such a seemly simple pattern has such impact, but it does. Guaranteed someone will complement my outfit each and everytime I wear it!

Fabulous pattern. Easy to follow instructions, which is great for a beginner like me! Have made 2 with short sleeves in cotton. Next up will be the longer sleeves.

I’ve made 4 Cielo Tops and one Dress (with pockets). It’s a very simple, but elegant pattern with some really nice thoughtful details - shoulder cut outs, interesting sleeves, cool boxy shape. I made a short-sleeve muslin in quilting cotton that I wear often (who knew quilting cotton would be nice to wear?????). I also made the short sleeved top in a linen/cotton blend and a cotton satin. The linen/cotton has more structure and the cotton satin is more draped but both wear beautifully and are very comfortable. I get compliments on them all the time, but more importantly I love to wear them. I made the dress out of a linen/cotton blend and it is very comfortable to wear and easy to style - it’s perfect for summer. Recently, I made the top with the longer sleeves in a cotton voile, it is my favourite and is absolutely a dynamite piece that showcases the print I chose so well. I’ve had lots of compliments on these and the tops pair well with the onyx pant, Mitchell trousers, Pietra pants and Sepia trousers. I’ve also got some jeans I’ve made (Itch to stitch mountain view) and the Merchant and Mills Clementine skirt that they pair really well with. These are fashionable staples, easy to style, comfortable to wear. The pattern is well drafted, the instructions are clear and this is a pattern anyone can make and adjust to fit. Closet core offers handy tips (I learned how to finish the neckline with a French bias bound finish) and options for finishing if you are a brand new beginner or a seasoned expert! I have more planned as there are so many ways to customize this without getting too fancy or technical but you can, if you choose, get all nerdy and finish everything with French seams/hidden finishes like I did (hence the slow in slow fashion). Thanks Closet Core for satisfying my desire to make a comprehensive wardrobe with well constructed garments that are lovely to make, admire and wear! Happy Sewing!

Absolutely love this pattern, especially the longer sleeve version, have made two dresses and a top so far absolutely love it 😍

What a beautiful pattern, it works so well and looks very professional, inside and out. The double turned hems, the bias on the facing with top stitching down the front seams and on linen sewed up like a dream on stone washed linen. The first pair, size 6 based on measurements are a bit roomy so next pair we did a size 4 and we will drop down to a 2 for the next pair. I think I will make her the wide base trousers next time in the 2 with the zip.
Thanks for the amazing Closet Core experience.

Had fun making this , I’m a beginner and found it a easy sew . hope to make the pocket less version as well. Loved the quality of printed pattern pieces .

The Cielo Top is simple but still interesting thanks to the bust dart in the front, shoulder detail in the back and cuffed sleeve. I like the neckline as it's not to big but not too small. I find this top works well with my high waisted pants and I just love it in linen. I've made several already!

I've only made the View A top so far, but it went smoothly and was easy to follow, even for a beginner sewist like me who had to look up tutorials for things like darts and slip stitching. I was between sizes, but sizing up gave me a good fit across the shoulders. The included instructions for grading seams, basting, and using interfacing were all clear and easy to follow. Even doing the sleeves and cuffs wasn't too painful for my first attempt.

I'm looking forward to trying the dress and more tops, and experimenting with different fabrics to get different looks. I'm not sure if it was my fabric choice, my low skill level, or the pattern, but even for a boxy top it did feel pretty roomy in comparison to how well the shoulders fit. I would make it an inch or so longer next time. But it's a cute and modern pattern, and it'll be fun to work with again in the future.

Have used CC patterns on several occasions previously and always been impressed with the stylish designs and detail of the instructions. Had read a few reviews of the cielo on Instagram and felt it would be a flattering choice for me. I think this might be my first time downloading CC patterns as a pdf however and my only irk was the amount of print outs I had to do when I already knew I only wanted to make the top (I printed out the C cup bust adjustment file as well as the generic sized one)…. I think I also recall struggling to find the right file in my printer app - because there were so many files in the bundle and hard to see the names on my phone screen (easily fixed by creating sub folders but wanted to feedback still in case useful to hear of this experience). That being said, the reason there were so many files is due to the amount of choice CC give their customers and the dedication to inclusivity in sizing, which is to be commended.

Once printed out, my experience with execution was as per my usual expectations with this company - clear and thorough and suited to beginners and advanced sewers alike. CC patterns tend to come out a bit big for me (I’m fairly petite) so I tend to size down and would do so even more when making this pattern again - reducing length of sleeve as would prefer it hit a bit higher up my arm. However overall experience was very good and fully intend to make more from this company in future xx

Indeed it's easy to sew and you can make smth gorge by choosing some special fabric ;)

I can't stop making this pattern. By happenstance (not having enough material) I started doing a "party in the back style" adding some color to back and cuffs. It goes so perfectly with the pietra pants. Thank you Closet Core.

Very easy fast sew with a ton of options. I’ve made it in double gauze as a PJ shirt all the way to a fancy work shirt. The instructions are clear to follow for beginners and there are some fun ways to hack it to make it your own.

I found the pattern very easy to follow. I generally wear a size 36” bust size but my resulting top was very large in the neck/collar area. Will have to adjust for a better fit on subsequent garments. Sleeves are lovely.

Really easy. Love the shoulder inserts at the back which I did in a contrasting colour. Made the short sleeve too. Was worried that it might be too short but it was perfect. Thanks Closet Core for the FBA pieces included with the pattern. Game changer!

Love Closet Core patterns!

I made the top version for a statement piece for a wedding I went to last Fall and absolutely loved it! I’ve since worn it with jeans and it’s just as cute dressed up or down! Easy to follow instructions and I love the fit, thank you!
