  • AMELIE DRESS | DRESSMAKING PATTERN | FOR BEGINNERS | CHILDRENS | KIDS

    Sale! Original price was: £18.00.Current price is: £12.00.

    The Amelie dress is a gorgeous little girl’s dress that features either three quarter length sleeves or a sleeveless bodice, attached to a full, gathered skirt. Ideal for parties, as a special occasion dress, maybe even as a bridesmaid dress, the Amelie is every little girl’s dream for twirling around in. Another great design for summer and winter, you can dress it up or down, maybe even shorten the skirt length to make it more like a skater dress. Clair wanted a slightly different take on the classic little girl’s dress and was inspired by an actual Amelie to create this design. Take a look at the original muse in her own version of the dress, ready for a party or a day out.

    This pattern features a gathered skirt and optional button holes – you can attach poppers instead to close up the back. A relatively simple pattern, the Amelie dress is a good next step on for a beginner sewist.

    The Amelie Dress Pattern comes in sizes age 1 – 6.

  • DOMINIQUE | TILLY AND THE BUTTONS | DRESSMAKING PATTERN | SKIRT | BEGINNERS

    Sale! Original price was: £18.00.Current price is: £12.00.

    Sew your own Dominique skirts – the ideal project for a novice stitcher, or a satisfying one hour make for more experienced dressmakers.

    We designed the straight skirt to be super simple for beginners. It features straight seams to practise your stitching and an elasticated waistband for an easy fit – with no fiddly zips or buttonholes! Choose from knee length or above-the-knee hemline, and add the optional turnover top patch pockets.

    The flared version of the skirt is slightly more challenging, as it’s cut on the bias and we suggest a drapier fabric for a flowing silhouette. Choose from knee length or on-trend midi hemline, with optional turnover top pockets, belt loops and elegant sash.

    Like all Tilly and the Buttons sewing patterns, Dominique includes instructions in plain English, helpful sewing tips, and colour photos showing you each step – making it easy for you to create gorgeous clothes you can be proud to say you made yourself.

    To make this project you will need (all sizes)
    Fabric – Straight skirt with pockets: 1.1m x 150cm wide / 1.5m x 115cm wide
    Fabric – Flared midi skirt with sash: 2.5m x 150cm wide OR 3.3m x 115cm wide
