GermanyExplained very clearly. Even the less experienced can handle it
United KingdomI have returned to sewing to try and develop patience. The cuff top pattern rewarded me with clear instructions and a forgiving design, and I completed my first top in " proper" fabric , a bit longer than the pattern, after a basic toile to make sure it worked for me. The little patience I have was rewarded. I will now be making more before moving onto my next TAL pattern
AustraliaI though the instructions were really clear and the pattern included a few great details like the neckline, cuffs, top-stitching and the pockets. I wasn't sure how the side piece was going to come together but I went with what the instructions said to do and it can together like magic! (there doesn't seem to be anywhere to upload a photo?)
The pics on the website don’t do this pattern justice...it is just, yet again, a perfect dress pattern..the detail is awesome and the fit is just soooo comfortable, yet so stylish. I am the lucky owner of almost all the TAL patterns, and this one is one of my favorites!
This is a perfect pattern. The attention to detail is immaculate. It fits like a dream and my favourite feature is the pockets. I made it in 8 oz dark denim and wear it with a Breton top underneath. You won’t be disappointed with this pattern it delivers!
