GET INSPIRED #SewingStevie
Made with quilting cotton, added button closure and sleeve cuffs. Will make more versions!
Hi Rachel, thanks so much for your lovely review! Your version is absolutely adorable – so pleased to hear you’ll be making more. :) Happy sewing! Virginija x
This was an easy make and makes up quickly, I chose to make it in double gauze for the summer. I will definitely make it again.
Hi Gwyneth, thanks so much for your lovely review! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed making the Stevie – double gauze sounds like a dreamy choice for summer! So happy to hear you'll be making it again. :) Happy sewing! Virginija x
As a novice sewer I never thought I would make my own clothes. However after finding Tilly's patterns there is no stopping me. The pattern is so easy to follow and I have just finished my third Stevie and have plans to make a lot more.
Hi Caro, thank you so much for your amazing review! :) I’m so happy to hear that Tilly’s patterns have sparked your sewing journey and that you’ve already finished your third Stevie - you are on a roll! So exciting to hear you’re planning to make many more. Happy sewing! Virginija x
I took a sewing class where they had us work with a pattern and I came away frustrated because the style was all wrong and the dress didn't fit. I found the Stevie pattern and what a game changer! I can sew a dress! The instructions are easy to follow, the blog posts and extras online make it even easier to plan my Stevie. I am thrilled with the results and already have made 4 Stevies, one with the add-on pattern. Thank you! I am buying more patterns so I can create a whole new wardrobe. Thank you!!
Hi Sam,
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m so happy to hear that the Stevie pattern was a game changer for you – four Stevies already, that’s amazing! I’m so glad the instructions and our blog made it easier, and it’s amazing that you’re now ready to create a whole new wardrobe. Can’t wait to see what you make next!
Happy sewing!

Really easy top and dress to make even if you are a sewing newbie. Steps are extremely easy to follow with full colour pictures, and I found the guide on how to lay out your tempates on the fabric extremely helpful.
Unfortuantely after my first attempt I ran into a snag - the top was pulling weirdly across the chest. Thankfully I emailed the team to ask for help and Frances was increbily helpful and patient in working out that I needed to do a full bust adjustment. As someone who is a complete beginner, this sounded extremely daunting and too advanced for me to do. Thankfully there are clear and easy to follow instructions on how to do this for the Stevie pattern, and one adjustment later, I had a top that fitted. I'm incredibly grateful that despite being such a small and busy team, support like this is available.
Hi Charlotte,
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m really happy to hear you found the pattern easy to follow, and it’s great that the layout guide was helpful too. So glad Frances could help you figure out the full bust adjustment - it can definitely feel a bit daunting at first, especially as a beginner, but you absolutely nailed it! We’re always here if you need a hand!
Happy sewing!
