Hello everyone and welcome back to my channel. Today I’m sharing my Tilly and the Buttons Indigo collection. It’s a pattern I reach for time and time again and in this vlog I share why as well as all the variations I’ve made.
Thank you so much to everyone for commenting on my latest videos and subscribing. I’ve loved feeling part of the sewing community and chatting about sewing with you all.
I’m wearing my navy polka dot indigo dress using fabric bought from Sewmesunshine.
You can find the pattern here:

Hi Liz, last week I watched your video about your 22 Indigo dresses and then I finally plucked up the courage and bought this pattern. It has arrived just now😀. I very much enjoy watching your videos and look forward to your new postings. Best wishes from sunny Sussex. Jadranka

You looked lovely in the orangey dress.. good color on you.

Thank you xx

@christinecrabb1911 2 года назад

Thank you, you have really inspired me, love your dresses 🤙❤️

@georgianasstudio 4 года назад

I absolutely agree about the sewing community. It's wonderful. Very kind and friendly.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

It really is - I feel like I’ve made so many virtual friends and everyone is so supportive xx

@kaybitner1131 3 года назад

What might be really fun using the exposed ruffles would be to do a strip down the center front double ruffled and maybe even with sewn on fun buttons down the middle of the double ruffle strip just to change it up a little. Really a cute pattern.

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Such a good idea x.

@juliesew_me_something699 4 года назад

I love the yellow dress would be really cool with a blue sandle or trainer 😎 xx

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you - good tips got styling x

@margaretvickers3416 4 года назад

Thank you! Another lovely video. I agree, be proud and say 'Thank you .I made it. I also understand your shyness - I have suffered all my life with shyness yet people couldn't understand it and would say, but Margaret you're a teacher!! Yes I was and when I was wearing my 'teacher hat' it was my job to be up front and out there.' The real me (and still is to a certain extent) is terrified of new situations and meeting people.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank u so much for watching and for your comment. I can totally relate. In the classroom I’m this confident and chatty teacher who loves to be around children laughing and singing. But put me in a room full of grown ups and my social anxiety gets a hold and suddenly I can’t think of anything to say! I have the same conversations with people so it’s nice to know I’m not the only one. I do need to get more confident say I made it though! Xx

@rachelberry1570 4 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing your huge collection of dresses using this pattern. It is very inspiring and I will be getting the pattern soon to make it myself. I have recently discovered the joys of dressmaking after been well and truly put off it all by my sewing teacher nearly 50 years ago now!!! How dreadful a waste that is! I started off by sewing the patterns made by Sonia Philip 100 Acts of Sewing which are simple to sew and can give different looks depending on fabric choice. Once again many thanks and happy stitching.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad you found the video useful. Sewing is fabulous isn’t it! I’m sorry to hear you were out off by a sewing teacher m. How sad. I wonder how many others were out off too! Glad you’ve decided to give it a go again. It really is a wonderful hobby. Happy sewing xx

@StitchRipRepeat 4 года назад

Wow they are all so fab, I especially Love the Banana dress 😍

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you x

@jaynefederici9140 2 года назад

My favourites are the you wore with the coral shoes and the green one. My favourite is the Nina Lee Southbank dress but I have still only made 2 so far. They do get worn a lot in winter.

@demitraferles7970 4 года назад

Beautiful. Love them all.! Also, if someone compliments something I'm wearing, of course I own up. BUT these days if I'm asked to sew for others I quote them some ridiculously exorbitant fee, so they never ask again! Lol

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

demitra ferles Thank you so much. Haha great advice! I do get asked quite often if could make something for someone else I’ll remember that tip xx

@cindywoods2487 3 года назад

So happy to have found your channel tonight. Love the Indigo pattern! I especially love the fabrics you have chosen. Lovely. I stopped sewing for myself a long time ago and am ready to get back into it. Looking for flowy fabric in soft prints like many of yours.

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you so much for watching. I love sewing and it’s really helped me the past year. Happy sewing xx

@soniatull1958 4 года назад

Great selection of dresses. I loved them all. But my favourite is your Christmas dress, what a transformation. Your post will inspire people to hack their patterns and get a variety of different looks and fabrics. You really should be proud of your makes when you're complimented and enjoy telling people about your creations. I am fairly new to your channel and love your content. Enjoy your summer!

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you for watching and for such a lovely comment. I need to get better at being proud of my makes when people ask I just get embarrassed and worry people think I’m showing off! Hope you have a lovely summer xx

@soniatull1958 4 года назад

@@Thebakerthatsews Sometimes it's nice to blow you're own trumpet. Anyway, we appreciate your makes. You have taken your hobby a BIG step forward than most of us. I've never shared anything I've made on social media only to a few friends and family. I also encourage friends and family to sew. They have bought their machines, don't have the same passion and enthusiasm as myself. I am in Barbados at the moment, (have been here during the pandemic) but returning to the UK in August. I have a sewing set-up in both places - couldn't do without a sewing machine!

@angelalysandrou4830 7 месяцев назад

Love all your indigos, I’ve just finished my second one x

@sheryl8034 2 года назад

I have just finished my first indigo dress. Which was my first item of dressmaking ever using the Flying Bobbins Tutorials on RU-vid. Liz is amazing and does a full 8 parts sew-a-long. I got the full pack from her website, material, thread, interfacing and the pattern. She is amazing. I couldn't of made the dress without the video's but now I feel I could follow a tilly pattern better after learning the techniques. Your Indigos are beautiful. You make me want to make more now. X

@Depression_Soup 4 года назад

Wow so many amazing dresses xx

@jbedford5010 4 года назад

Gosh! That’s a lot of dresses but they are all so lovely. I’ve really been enjoying watching your vlogs. I’m relatively new to sewing, having started in lockdown, but have so far made 3 Safiya play suits for my daughter, three skirts for myself and a few other bits and bobs. The vlogs really help inspire me so thank you for posting them.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you so much for watching. Sewing is just the best hobby so I’m glad you’ve found it too. Sounds like you’ve caught the bug too with your sewing. Xx

@nikkirose1719 4 года назад

Glad to know I'm not alone in making umpteen variations of one dress 😁. If you find a style that you love why not Keep making it, it's better than making lots of different things that just don't get worn. You have a great selection of dresses there, thanks for sharing 💜

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Totally! I am all for reusing a pattern if you love it and it’s your style. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel xx

@janicecoulson5388 4 года назад

I told a friend thanks I made it. She came around a few days later, she had culled her wardrobe and brought them for me to try on. I think she thought I had made mine because I couldn't afford to buy one!!!

@weaver7249 4 года назад

That is so funny! You just never know what another person is thinking, You just have to laugh. Keep saying I made them - it is a wonderful thing to be able to sew.

@plaidgirl107 4 года назад

That is so funny. I've been sewing for years and now I'm comfortable saying I made thanks.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

I need to get more confident at saying It made this!’

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Haha that’s so funny! I have had a few friends ask if I can alter garments when they knew I could sew - which I find quite a dull thing to do 😆😆 Id much rather be creating a lovely new dress or top!

@ruthchapman6125 4 года назад

Thank you for showing your lovely dresses. I have never been inspired by the pattern, partly because I don't like the fabric of the pattern photo- i can't wear and don't really like yellow/mustard so it put me off! However I think you have changed my mind with the amazing variety of each version. Thank you🙂

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you so much for watching. It’s a great pattern and I think the fabric really makes a difference xx

@angelalysandrou4830 Год назад

You’ve just inspired me to make an Indigo, just ordered the pattern x

@lizmillard6162 4 года назад

Hi. I just love your sense of fun and happy attitude. I fully understand the feeling a great print or style can give when you wear it. I just loved you in the yellow vintage fabric and the yellow gingham, they really look great on you. The long white and black peachskin was wonderful too

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you so much for watching and for such a lovely comment. I recently found yellow to be a colour I can wear - previously I’d have avoided it so thank you for saying you like it x

@blanchedixon4252 4 года назад

I like them all and I like that you have several pairs of colorful matching shoes! Your creativity really shines! You obviously REALLY LOVE this pattern. You have inspired me to repeat some of my MANY patterns with creative hacks. Thanks for sharing your beautiful versions of your TNT pattern! Happy Sewing!😃

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Blanche Dixon Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I love shoes just as much as sewing I think 😂 I do adore this pattern - it works So well for so many different fabrics. It’s great to be able to reuse a pattern. Happy sewing xx

@sewlittletime 4 года назад

My word, 22 indigos that's amazing. My most made from a pattern is 6 Cleo dresses and possibly the same or maybe more from the Coco pattern. I absolutely love the indigo dress since making my first one so can completely see why it's a favourite. I've done mine with the exposed ruffle waist and the straight sleeves. My next one I intend to do the flounce sleeves too. I 100% agree about friendships on Instagram etc. I've made loads through just messaging each other and it's always amazing when you do eventually get to meet. Xx

@joannesaliani2258 4 года назад

I like all the versions you have made but I think my favourite is your Christmas dress. It is an amazing creative way of putting two fabrics together that you wouldn't normally use. Excellent job. Enjoyed this fun vlog a lot. 😊🍬💛

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you so much for watching. The Christmas dress is my favourite too - it was fun sewing with sequins x

@elainesnyder8210 4 года назад

I love all your dresses and I love polka dots. 💗

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you xx

@lorrainewalker9426 2 года назад

Omg , what a lot of dresses 👗, adore. The last one it looks amazing . Love the way you mash patterns together, you inspire me xx

@marathorne6821 2 года назад

I guessed you'd have made 25 Indigos, so I wasn't far wrong! 😊 I have followed you for a while and I know how prolific you are... I don't have 22 dresses in total, let alone 22 of the same pattern! That said, I have made dozens of Agnes tee shirts in all different colours and sleeve variations, so that has to be my "go to" pattern. Happy sewing!

@marita8485 2 года назад

Fabulous dresses, loads of inspiration for a new sewist. Thanks too for mentioning Material Girl Laura and Button and Pip, it's good to know other RU-vid channels to follow x

@annpeacock7650 2 года назад

I love your video's I am about to try and make my first dress the LOTTA dress xx

@Kwinon2 3 года назад

Love all your Indigo dresses! I don’t feel comfortable just saying I made it either; when someone compliments something I made, I just say thanks, it’s a *insert pattern name*. People who sew usually ask for details, and we have a nice conversation about sewing.

@doreenbradley3849 4 года назад

Wow what a beautiful collection of pretty dresses 👍

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you xx

@sharonspell2753 4 года назад

I really enjoyed seeing all you indigo makes. I have the book and plan to make it. I just finished the Washi dress by Made by Rae. I feel for it like you feel for the Indigo. I am cutting out another Washi dress now. Love watching you from Austin Texas

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you for watching. I haven’t come across the washi dress so I’m off to look it up. It’s so lovely to find a pattern you love that feels like you isn’t it! Xx

@sewdysfunctional4889 4 года назад

The Indigo is my nemesis at the moment but I love all your versions. I am always too shy to tell people that I've made things. I don't want them to think I'm showing off! Those that know I sew sometimes ask, in which case I do tell them, but I always feel embarrassed. Especially in case they think it's rubbish haha! You should definitely be loud and proud about yours though, you have so many amazing me-made outfits. Thanks also for the encouragement to engage with the sewing community - I'm new to it all and feeling a bit scared to chat to people, and I don't make anywhere near as many things so perhaps don't have much to talk about. Yet... thanks for another great video x

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Oh no! Sorry to hear it’s your nemesis at the moment. I’m the same with telling people I made it - I don’t want them to think I’m showing off!! I need to get better at being proud of my makes 😂 The sewing community really are so lovely - even if you’ve hardly made a thing just commenting on posts of stories is a great way to start making some virtual friends. I’m always happy to chat 💖

@isabellawharton-gaffney6518 4 года назад

Wow that is a lot of Dresses I loved all of them x

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you xx

@sandraobrien8705 4 года назад

You really do love that pattern to have made it up 22 times! It is a great example of how we really don't need umpteen patterns. Just reworking and playing around with what we have can be so creative.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

I really do love it - it’s got so much potential to be so many different styles. I agree - it’s great to use a pattern lots of time and not get distracted by the hundreds of new patterns released each month xx

@cathoffman2769 4 года назад

Hi Liz. Thank you for another wonderful, fun and informative video. I adore your "bonkers" holiday dress!

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Haha thank you for watching - my holiday dress is my favourite too 😂 xx

@donnacieslik213 3 года назад

Hello Liz, I have really enjoyed watching your vlog on your Indigo dresses. I have the pattern but not had the confidence to sew it up, it the style more than anything not sure if it will suit my body shape . However I am going to give it a go. 🧵 xx

@weaver7249 4 года назад

I love every single one. How wonderful!

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you xx

@debbiescott512 2 года назад

This is my second watch … I’ve recently bought the pattern - I’ve made one and hope to make lots more. Thanks for the inspiration.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

@janetephraim4034 4 года назад

OMG! You've certainly had your moneys worth out of that pattern! You've inspired me, I'm off to buy my very own Indigo! x

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Janet Ephraim Haha yes I have! It’s such a great pattern with so much potential. Glad to have inspired you. Happy sewing xx

@Helenasew 4 года назад

Love it! I love the indigo pattern too! I've only made two, but I'm sure there will be more!

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you - it’s a fab pattern xx

@isobelmaccuish4324 3 года назад

Lovely dresses Liz...they really suit you! I must get that pattern!

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you 💖 It’s a great pattern xx

@janisbrunst4226 4 года назад

Those dresses seem to fit your personality and are lovely in you.

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you xx

@joscott5729 4 года назад

Lovely dresses and the style really suits you. I thought it was more of a tunic style pattern but looking at all that you have done with the pattern , I am very tempted to try it.

@lesleysmith7452 4 года назад

I thought it wouldn’t suit me but I’ve made quite a few it’s my favourite pattern 😍

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

It’s a really great pattern - I think a lot of people have been surprised when they’ve tried it and it suits them. It can be really floaty to wear xx

@sewcraftyjean3525 4 года назад

I love the white with black peachskin one. The one you added a ruffle at the bottom, before the extension pack with the ruffle came out. You should get a commission for your idea 😂😍 I'm starting to think I need this pattern. Love watching your videos. I have the make it simple book, would love to see your tabitha tshirts and dresses collection xx

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Thank you for watching - I’m really enjoying seeing how much I can use a pattern and have definitely got more confident with hacking a pattern. The Make it simple book is fab - I’ll plan a video where I share my Tabitha collection xx

@lesleysmith7452 4 года назад

Loved seeing your collection indigo is my favourite pattern felt bit bad I made so many but!, not anymore👍 You inspired me with your blue spotty just put an order into Harriet!! And I loved the hack of your Alexa jumpsuit so I’ve ordered the pattern my next make for my holidays!!! Loved your versions 😍😍xx

@Thebakerthatsews 4 года назад

Ah don’t feel bad if you’ve made lots. I love reusing a pattern. So glad I’m not the only one that has made so many! The dotty fabric is gorgeous you won’t regret buying it. I also love the hackbility of the Alexa so you won’t regret buying that pattern either. Happy sewing xx

@janspenno2241 2 года назад

Wow! What an interesting video and a brilliant collection! Hard to pick a favourite. I absolutely love the maxi green one but I rather liked one of the winter navy long sleeved versions. Going to carry o. Watching now. I guessed 20 so I was close. I also love your final one. I have this pattern but have not made it. I tried the new sewhouse seven gathered dress and it’s not me although I really love sew house seven. So I’m nervous about the indigo. I’m going to have a go. Thankyou.!!!! Did you do a Tabitha round up?

@susanjackson1616 3 года назад

Lovely makes :))) I’m going to do my first indigo dress today , you’ve given me loads of options x

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you for watching. Happy sewing xx

@stephaniethomson9531 3 года назад

Hi Liz, thanks for sharing your Indigos! Did you use a different neckline finish on your dresses? I have made two and they both gape slightly at the back neckline. I have used the facing as per the pattern and wondering if a different finish may help?

@Thebakerthatsews 3 года назад

Thank you for watching. I used a light bias for some of the dresses instead of facing as I felt the facing pulled the neckline out of shape a little and for some of the lighter viscose dresses it kept riding up despite being under stitched! I prefer the button down back pattern piece and style and have found that neckline better xx
