Luella skirt

Love Tilly and The Buttons patterns. They always fit me so well. I have started skirt and so far so good. No problems. Just awaiting elastic!

Hi Theresa, thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm so glad to hear the Luella is going well so far - fingers crossed the elastic arrives soon so you can finish it off! It's great to hear the patterns fit you well too. Happy sewing! Virginija x

Love it

Luella Skirt

Brilliant pattern - I have already made one for myself and one for my mum and I'm sure there will be more! Very beginner friendly and lots of options to make multiple different versions.

Hi there, thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m so happy to hear you’ve already made one for yourself and one for your mum - that’s very sweet! Can’t wait to see what your next versions look like! Happy sewing! Virginija x

Luella skirt

Have made this in double gauze. Really easy to follow patterns. Have made lots of TATB patterns and would definitely recommend. I’m planning on making another one, maybe in cotton seersucker.

Hi Deb, thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm so glad you enjoyed making the Luella skirt and that the pattern was easy to follow, yay! I love the sound of a seersucker version - can’t wait to hear how the next one turns out! Happy sewing! Virginija x

Lovely pattern, clear instructions

I don't get a lot of time to sew but this is a good quality pattern with easy and clear instructions which made it simple for me to resume making the skirt each time. The instruction booklet with the clear pictures was a joy to use. I really enjoyed making the Luella skirt!

Hi Lorraine, thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m so glad you enjoyed making the Luella skirt and that the instructions helped you ease back into it each time, yay! Happy sewing whenever you get the time! Virginija x
