Sew a show-stopping Joni dress, from Tilly’s second book Stretch! 🤩💕🎈🤳 The twist-front bodice may look complex, but it’s actually pretty simple to make once you try it. - The bodice is fitted with a plunging neckline and flattering empire waist seam. - The half-circle skirt is great for twirling, with a gentle dipped hem that lands just above the knee. - You can make it with three-quarter or elbow-length fitted sleeves, or try the flared sleeve pattern hack. Depending on what fabric you pick

2024 has been a blast! ⚡️ We released one book, two online workshops, five sewing patterns (including one for charity), and a ton of free content. We also exhibited at two shows, held a retrospective of the past decade of Tilly and the Buttons, and had a book launch party! 🎉 None of this would have been possible without our amazing team, Frances and Virginijia, plus a wonderful pool of freelancers, models, pattern testers, partners and suppliers. Thank you so much to everyone who helped us out

How we make our sewing patterns pt.4: Pulling it all together ✨ In the last part of our whistlestop tour of how we make our sewing patterns at Tilly and the Buttons, I’ll show you (in a nutshell!) how we pull all the elements together to make the finished product. If you haven’t seen them already, check out parts 1 to 3 for the earlier stages.

Ten years ago I shared a sewing pattern on my blog, with no idea whether anyone would actually buy it. 43 patterns, 3 books, 9 online workshops, 2 babies, 1 global pandemic and 57,000 cups of coffee later, Tilly and the Buttons is still going strong! The last decade has been full of pinch me moments, from getting our patterns stocked in major department stores, having books commissioned, being on the telly, giving talks, seeing our stuff in the press... It’s also involved more hard work, persona

Tilly and the Buttons | Learn to sew with easy sewing patterns on Instagram: "Hands up if you press your pattern pieces? 🤚 While sewists are always told to press fabric before cutting it out, what about your paper pattern?
