So cute

I made a little dress and needed a blouse with it. The driftwood blouse was perfect with the ruffle sleeves.
Made of a white sheet I had in my stash.
The instructions were very clear and I’m so pleased with the result.
Many more to come!

Lovely pattern!

First time purchaser and I couldn’t be happier with the pattern. Very explicit instructions and video - thanks for taking the time! I hope to be making many more blouses for my grandbabies.

I always lowe Twig and Tale instructions. Well writen, beautiful to look at and easy to follow. This is a dream of a blouse. We now have a closet full of them 😄

Sunny Cover-up

One of my grandchildren is very fair-skinned so this little dress is perfect for covering arms and shoulders.

I made it in a linen blend first but it’s a bit big for this year. Next I tried a double gauze in the smaller size which worked well, although still a bit big around the neckline and I need to take the hem up.

Very sweet though! …and easy to follow.

Super cute

The instructions are clear and easy to follow. The pattern sewed up beautifully and fits great. I made one for my newborn and one for her older sister. I love that I can make matching tops for them. The newborn is now wearing her older sisters top. The best thing about sewing is homemade handme downs!

Perfect

Absolutely love this pattern. I've made one each for my granddaughters. One I up cycled so quite chuffed with myself the other I made from from soft indian cotton. The pattern and instructions are very easy to follow. Please could this pattern be made for adults as I would buy it immediately ❤️❤️
