A Tinny dress

October 15, 2015


I am a big fan of the Belgian blog StraightGrain, written by my friend An.  An has just re released her Tinny pattern with a multitude of options! I helped An out a little with reviewing her pattern and helping with some of the line drawings of the pattern options. Of course I had to sew up a new Tinny because all the versions I have seen on An's blog are so lovely!


I made Emily the extended sleeve version with peter pan collar and gathered skirt. There are so many other variations - collars, sleeves and skirts that this pattern can be used multiple times with a different dress each time.


The fabric I used for this dress is a lovely cotton lawn called Garden Floral in Harvest by Lennox Gardens in lawn. It is a  Robert Kaufman print which was kindly sponsored by Hawthorne Threads. I love the vintage style of the floral. Unfortunately, I may have used one of the last pieces of this fabric from Hawthorne Threads as this fabric is no longer in print. I found a similar Kaufman floral here.


I took around fifty photos of Emily in this dress this evening, but most of them looked something like this...


 So I was left with only a few that were blog worthy!



To get your copy of the amazing Tinny dress, head over to StraightGrain - An has a discount code over there too as well as many versions of this pattern to inspire you!

  6. The vintage fabric suits her perfectly. Those rosy cheeks make up for any tongue poking. She's gorgeous.
