Tilly and the Buttons Indigo Top/Dress Add-on
Buy the Indigo Top and Dress Add-on sewing pattern from Tilly and the Buttons. Turn your Indigo into even more different smock tops and dresses with this add-on pack of bonus pattern pieces and instructions. Make a swishy midi dress by adding an extra tier to the skirt, sew short sleeves (with or without an added ruffle), create a gorgeous button back bodice, or make bang-on-trend elasticated puff sleeves. As with the original pattern, you have the option to stitch either regular gathered seams or exposed frill seams. Mix and match the pattern pieces and seam styles to create 60 different variations!
NOTE: This is not a complete pattern. You must have already purchased the original Indigo Top and Dress pattern to use this add-on. If you have not yet purchased the original pattern, you can do so here.Â
