DO YOU SELL GIFT CARDS?

Yes, we have a choice of digital e-gift cards and physical gift cards available:

E-Gift Cards:

Our digital E-Gift Cards are available in amounts from £10 up to £250 and have no delivery fees. They are delivered by email and contain instructions for how to redeem them at checkout.

As well as patterns and books, they can be used towards an online workshop. Just purchase the corresponding amount (e.g. £59) from the drop down list, and then if you or your lovely friend drops us an email at hello@tillyandthebuttons.com, we'll sort it out pronto!

Physical Gift Cards:

Our specially designed Tilly and the Buttons physical gift cards are perfect for popping into your Christmas cards or sending to your pals if you don't know which of our sewing patterns they already own.

These gift cards will be sent to your chosen shipping address in a sealed lilac envelope, within our usual hardy recyclable packaging, to make sure they arrive as cute as can be. 

As well as patterns and books, they can be used towards an online workshop. Just purchase the corresponding amount (e.g. £59) from the drop down list.

CAN I ADD GIFT WRAPPING?

YES! We have a cute gift wrap option, perfect for sending pressies directly to your sewing pals! Add gorgeous gift wrapping to your order today.

CAN I ADD A GIFT NOTE?

You can! Leave a message for your sewing pal and we'll pop it in your order at no extra cost.

In your cart (not the checkout), you'll notice a box where you can leave a comment. We'll see your note on the order, print it out and stick it on one of our lovely postcards to pop inside your order, yay!

This option is only available for physical orders, and not PDF or digital orders.

If you want to send a PDF sewing pattern as a gift, we recommend ordering as yourself, then forwarding over the separate PDF pattern email you'll receive after your order confirmation email - that way, the recipient won't see the invoice and you can add your own message with the email.
