Agnes top

Love the Agnes top, the instructions were clear and I will make lots of them

Thank you sew much! x

Fun easy sew

I really enjoyed sewing this top. Very clear instructions. Such a versatile pattern. I look forward to making more in lots of different colours.

So lovely to read thank you Elaine x

Nice Pattern with Lots of Options

Made my first Agnes, the instructions were very clear as always. Only issue was on the pdf pattern I bought they didn't have both markings to create the front gather but I don't think it would be difficult to estimate.

Will definitlely be making the other versions.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback on the Agnes top, so happy to read that you have plans for more.

With regards to the gather markings on the patterns we have included this information in the instruction booklet.

On the 'Cut Your Fabric' page in your instruction booklet.
'If you’re making the ruched sleeve, use dressmaker's carbon or a chalk pencil to mark a 20cm (8in) long elastic stitching line down the wrong side of each sleeve, starting from the small circle marked on the pattern and running vertically down the sleeve, parallel to the grainline arrow.
If you’re making the ruched neckline, mark the elastic stitching line on the wrong side of the front bodice the same way down the centre fold - 9cm (3½in) long for sizes 1-6, or 11.7cm (4⅝in) long for sizes 7-15.'

I hope this helps but you feel free to email me at hello@tillyandthebuttons.com for more help. Kate x

Great downloadable pattern

Lovely to be able to download pattern with no issues re sizing and printing. Have not been able to see it yet sure to problem with my machine, but looking forward to it

Have fun sewing your Agnes top Jane. Team Buttons x

The Agnes top

This is my third pattern from tilly and the buttons. These patterns are so straightforward to follow and the end results are exactly as you would expect. It is made so much easier with the instructions being in the form of a booklet, that is easier to have out. The final result is the fit is perfect.I made the Agnes top out of left over fabric and loved it so much I made a second, with plans to make more.

Oh wow thank you Sam for sharing your makes and for your kind words. Team Buttons x
