HOW TO SEW A TINO SHIRT DRESS
As I write this, I've just read the 1135 comments on the previous post, and I wanted to thank you for the immeasurable dose of love I've just received. So it's a contest yes, but what a slap in the face to feel you so caring and present, right there. Thanks guys <3. I love reading you, and dissecting your thoughts about your favorite pieces. It's so neat, I learn so much and feel less alone... Sometimes I could talk for hours about my favorite clothes, what they say, and how they make me feel. And I see I'm not the only one! Today, as promised, I'm back with the shirt dress pattern as a gift. Tinofrom the collaboration with Princesse Tam-Tam.
Thanks again to Princesse Tam-Tam for giving us the opportunity to make your shirtdress! You know, it's always a challenge for us to get the patterns for our collaborations, because the ateliers don't always see the point of sharing certain manufacturing secrets, and I understand their point of view, the fear of being copied, etc.... But I'm convinced that sharing and generosity are far more important and powerful vectors of sympathy than any advertising campaign. All things considered, of course, but if you're considering a collaboration with us, it's important to also take into account the Do It Yourself dimension that's an integral part of our DNA, and the community of seamstresses that's been with us from the start! Without further ado, here's the video tutorial for the Tino dress, Princesse Tam-Tam x Wear Lemonade!
To sew this dress you'll need :
- 3 m of fabric for a width of 1.40 m. We recommend viscose or cotton poplin,
- no iron-on required,
- 12 buttons for button placket, 0.8mm or 1cm diameter
- and free pattern download hereor in your Lemonade Pattern Corner.
Big hugs and I can't wait to see you as Tino! As for me, I'm making one in lobster fabric! Available soon on e-shop in 1m50 and 3m coupons!
