  • Hi all and welcome back to another vlog from yours truly! This week I've sewn another make from Tilly's book "Make it Simple"...The Tabitha Dress! The dress is an add-on option to the Tabitha t-shirt that's featured in the book. As with all Tilly's patterns, the instructions were super simple to follow and perfect for a beginner to follow.
    I made the t-shirt in Tilly's size 5 (UK 14) the skirt is drafted to fit your measurements.
    Fabric used is a viscose textured jersey.

    I have wanted to make this for ages but I prefer to see how it is done rather than read the instructions, it's very helpful thanks so much for sharing. Love the fabric by the way.

      I'm exactly the same! Before i buy a new pattern, I search on here first to see how it comes together. I prefer to follow a video than follow instruction book x

    Love your honesty re not pre reading the pattern. I am in the middle of making this dress, hope mine turns out as lovely as yours.❤

      I'm terrible for not pre reading the pattern before starting 😂. It's something I need to work on! I do love my tabitha dress. I plan on making lots more! Please let me know how yours turns out! ❤️

    Looks great & thank you for sharing all your thoughts & tips. I’m just tracing off the pattern for the t-shirt & pjs & graded a little between the sizes shown after looking as the finished sizes. Your dress looks super but not sure I would make it as don’t often wear dresses.😊

    Did you interface behind your buttonholes? I use a stretch interface for jersey. Brilliant. No puckers

      @gen_in_stitches  Před rokem +1

    You could have put some interfacing behind the buttonholes to stabilize them. Good job though xx it looks great.
