Tilly and the Buttons

Run don’t walk and get yourself the Nell Dress and Blouse pattern. You won’t regret it! I just finished the midi dress version of the Nell and it’s uh-mazing ❤️ It’s my first make for my 2025 summer capsule and it’s exactly what I hoped for. The instructions are wonderful. The dress came together smoothly. It was such a fun make. I predict at least 3 more before the summer. 😊

I’ve always enjoyed making T&TB patterns since I learnt to sew in 2015. I chose this pattern to try the pintuck detail. I plan to make another with a stiffer fabric as the viscose (pictured) creases terribly.

I have wanted to make clothing for many years, but I always thought it would be too hard. I finally decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did! This pattern is easy to follow and comes with fab instructions. I'm going to make a lot of Stevie tunics in many colours!

As a beginner I thought that there were a lot of steps but they seemed clear and I managed quite well.

The only part I struggled with was doing the frill seam - but will try again.

Would definitely buy another pattern from Tilly & The Buttons

I debated on getting this pattern as my chest measurement was just outside the size range. So glad I took the chance as this pattern had all the details I was looking for, princess seams, yoke, and a proper collar with a stand. The only adjustment I had to make was to "skimp" on the seam allowance in the bust area. I completed a top in a fine wale printed corduroy and another in a plaid flannel. Currently working on a denim dress where the top stitching will really shine. Have cut out another dress in Springy cotton print, planning on a short sleeve. This pattern will work for all seasons and the princess seams make fitting so simple. Your instructions are superb, and the photos are so helpful a confident beginner could certainly handle this pattern. This is the second Tilly pattern I've used and loved (Coco dress/top).

This was a fun and easy sew project!

Excellent great price pattern

Absolutely wonderful pattern. Clear instructions, easy to follow, fun to make and really comfortable to wear. It’s my new favourite pattern and top. I have made it twice so far with different sleeves but will definitely be making more Nora tops. Love it.

This is the first sweatshirt I've made entirely on my overlocker! I was amazed how quickly and easily it came together. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I had to add a little extra length to the body and sleeves -( I'm 5'8".) I went with a two-tone cropped variation and it has a lot of impact - I love it!

The Lotta dress came out beautifully, and I would definitely make it again. It is easy to wear and comfortable. The pattern instructions were clear and helpful.

Although I am not a beginner waist, I have enjoyed the patterns because they are easy and quick. Their instructions are very good.

I really enjoyed making the Jaime trousers I could follow the instructions easily. The video also helped.

Really happy with this pattern currently making a dress to take on holiday

Clear step by step lessons presented in a friendly positive way. I opened the box of my new janome, same model as Tilly is using in the videos, and worked through the course over a few days. Being able to rewind, pause and check as I went along built confidence to attempt overlocking samples as suggested. Now practicing on linen scraps before I start my project. Highly recommend

Very happy with this pattern. Tilly and the Buttons creates patterns which are easy to follow
