I love Tilly patterns, they have quickly become my fave over the year.
Yes mine too their instructions are fab and I love the style xx
Great Video -- I love seeing all the finished projects!!
Thanks for watching I'm really pleased you enjoyed it :) x
Loved watching your video and I adore Tilly's patterns 😊😘
Thank you so much for watching! I do too particularly her more recent patterns x
*FABULOUS. Can't Wait For Your Next Cool ... Keep it going.*
Thank you for watching :) xx
Lovely makes... thanks for sharing 💕
Thanks so much for watching! I'm glad you like them xx
Oh man I am LOVING that black stripe Coco tunic! Why why why do I have to work when I want to sew!! Thanks!😊
Haha that battle! Hope you manage to get some sewing time soon, thanks so much for watching x
Very beautiful patterns and all the fabrics you chose
Thank you so much for watching I'm glad you like them :) xx
Fab video. I love your fabric choices. 😍
Doreen Bradley thanks so much! I’m sorry for my late reply I missed this somehow 💓
Love all of your makes I have 2 of Tilly’s books but have only made a couple of the patterns I feel they are for you young ladies not for the older
Oh that’s a shame I’m sure you’d look fab in them all though 😉 I know what you mean it depends on how you feel comfortable though! Thanks so much xxx
Everything is very beatifull.
Thank you very much xx
Love your all your Tilly makes they are beautiful x
louise campbell thank you so much 💖💖
I love that black and white floral dress
Thank you! I still haven’t done anything with it yet xx
What a comprehensive and inspiring video - I loved seeing all your Tilly makes and your fabric choices are gorgeous. When I got back into sewing maybe 5 years ago, the first thing I made was the TATB Mathilde blouse. I chose the wrong colour for me, and never wore it, but the pattern is gorgeous with pintucks and balloon sleeves. I’ve just cut out another in Atelier Brunette viscose.
Thank you so much I'm really pleased you enjoyed it! I love the look of the Mathilde blouse but I've not made it yet. Maybe one for this summer ;) I love Atelier Brunette - I hope you enjoy it xx
InstaBlaster.
Haya. Wonderful makes. The play suits are my favorite. The choice of fabrics you have used work so well together. Thanku for sharing. x
you got me in stitches thank you so much I do love a playsuit (except when it comes to using the loo) 😂
@@SecretLifeOfASeamstress HaHa I know the feeling.
Hi Sally, some really gorgeous makes there and I adore your Mimi blouse...it looks so good on you 💕👌. I've really enjoyed looking at all your makes of Tilly's. I must get around to making the Marigold trousers..they look so comfy to wear, especially in the summer months 👍. Thanks for sharing Sally and enjoy your sewing ✂😁💖😘
Sally Dingle thank you for watching ☺️ The Marigolds are very comfy and a very easy pair of trousers to start with if you’re not used to trousers like I wasn’t xx
@@SecretLifeOfASeamstress I'll definitely give them a go.. I definitely need more trousers 👍😁😘
I love the black indigo dress with the frill around the hem - it looks fabulous on you but having said that if it is so uncomfortable to wear then give it the chop and make another in a more lightweight fabric. Love all your makes, thanks for sharing.
Angie Wills thank you! Yes I think I’m going to have to chop it. You’re right I can always make it again. Thanks so much for watching 😊 xx
I have recently bought material to make the pinefore dress for winter, thanks for the tip about the hips, I will be measuring it out very carefully, theres nothing worse than having tight areas on your clothes making you feel uncomfortable. Lovely Tilly makes I really like her patterns and always buy the hard copies! x
I think it makes such a difference what fabric you use too. My denim one was a lot stiffer so was bound to give less stretch. I hope you enjoy making it :) Thanks so much for watching xx
Lovely selection of Tilly makes 😄. I love her patterns. I love your Safiyas and I've just made my first Indigo which I absolutely love. I'd leave yours as is, it's so pretty. If you ever line a Cleo, just interline it, so simple and quick, but very effective for tight wearing 👍. Thanks for sharing xx
So sorry I missed this comment somehow!! I will definitely try interlining my next Cleo I hate it when they stick to your tights ;) Thanks so much for watching x
@@SecretLifeOfASeamstress ha, don't worry 😋....yes interlining is the way to go! Once you do it though, you feel you need to do it on lots of other projects, so then it does become more time consuming! Xx
I would cut the Indigo dress made in viscose twill into a top and a skirt. The top would not need to be long to ensure you have enough for your skirt. The skirt could have an elastic waist band. If you are short on fabric use a different fabric for the waist band or the back part of the waist band. If the skirt is still too short you could put an extra tier on the bottom in the same fabric if you any left of it. If you have no fabric left of the viscose twill you could use a black fabric or another fabric that worked well with the black and white viscose twill.
flower thank you! That’s a really good idea actually, I think I’m definitely going to go with the top at least to get more wear. Thank you for watching and commenting x
I think the indigo with the frill is gorgeous, but if you are not that comfortable in it and don't love wearing it, turning it into a top is a grand idea...
Thanks so much! I still haven't done anything with it yet it's sitting in my to mend pile lol!! I think I'll end up turning it into a top to be honest. Thanks so much for watching :) xx
Hello. I made a couple of the TATB Billy sweatshirts. I absolutely love them! Sonya
Ah yes I’ve made about three Billies too I love them. I’ve yet to make the dress though so I’m going to try that this autumn xx
Love all your makes! Would the twill dress be ok for winter? Would look great with top underneath and black boots? Be good to see what you do!
Louise Burgess it might be I’m still undecided 😂 I’ll report back whatever I do - thank you for watching xx
I love the Safire jumpsuit but wonder does it gape open at the top? I find that wrap dresses etc often gape open.
Debra Normansell thank you! Yes it did actually but I managed to solve that by putting a little popper where it wanted to fall open. It’s much better with that 😊 xx
I love all of your makes especially the Safiya dress. My daughter is called Sofia and every time I hear people talk about that pattern it makes me think of her (I believe Tilly calls it Sa-fee-a). I have the book but haven’t made any of those patterns. I’m going to have a go at making the Tabitha top and dress. I’ve made all the items from Love at First Stitch although the Lilou bodice doesn’t fit me well so I need to sort that one. I also have the Stretch book so I’ll make some patterns from that one soon. The only stand alone pattern I’ve made is the Bettine which I love 😊
Noelia that’s such a pretty name! I always wonder how you’re supposed to pronounce it and now I know thank you :) I have the stretch book but have only made the Freya dress so far which I didn’t feel suited me very well. I think the make it simple is much more my style. Thank you for watching 😊 xx
Secret Life Of A Seamstress thanks for your compliment regarding my name 😊
Thank you for your video. Can I ask what type of elastic did you use for the Safiya trousers and playsuit? I bought some knitted elastic but it seems too stiff.
Oh gosh it was a while ago now so I can't quite remember. In my experience, all elastics tend to feel a little different depending on where you buy them from. I tend to get mine from either Hobbycraft or Fabric World local to us. Sorry to not be more help x
Such a pretty collection of Tilly makes! I am very much the same as you - I make adjustments as I go along and rarely jot them down then have to reinvent the wheel the next time I make the pattern! I think I personally would chop the dress made of the viscose twill if it isn't very comfortable to wear, as making it more wearable sounds great, I'll be interested to see what you decide xx
Thank you!! I'm glad I'm not the only one, I make myself so cross sometimes lol. Yes I think I will alter the dress I want to be able to wear it more. Might give that a go soon, eek! Thanks for watching x
Great to see your tilly and the buttons collection. I like your culottes playsuit 🙂 x
Thank you I love that one too so comfy :) x
Sorry pressed wrong button I meant to say older ladies see what happens when your getting on in years . You look lovely by the way.
😂
Cut the dress! Why not? If you don’t find it comfortable you may as well . Then you can wear it . Love your makes
Yes I think I will do it would be a shame not to wear it 😊 Thanks so much for watching xx
No don't cut it into a top it looks great on you.....
Isabella Wharton-Gaffney aw thanks so much I still can’t decide! Thank you for watching xxx
