    Hello Zadie!

    I absolutely LOVE this pattern. The fut was perfect, no alterations needed. I have made one, just about to start my second. Sadly, I can't add a pic as my made Zadie is in Malta. I did struggle a bit with the side inserts but got it eventually. Thank you for Zadie, I love her!

    Don't Be Scared!!

    I just started sewing a year ago, and the instructions and pattern were easy to follow and I was able to make my first dress! It's a great intro to pleats as well. Don't be scared, jump in with this great pattern and the dress turned out fantastic!

    Love this pattern

    I’ve made this dress twice so far and love this pattern. The instructions are excellent and the dress is so flattering and comfortable. I’ve used color blocking for on version and a print for the second, using different sleeve lengths for each dress. Each resulted in a fun and fashionable look! Love the clear instructions, pictures and style! Well done, Tilly and the buttons!

    So lovely, thank you for sharing Brittany. x
