Aimed at parents, parents-to-be and friends or family looking to make gifts, TILLY AND THE BUTTONS: MINI MAKES is the go-to resource for sewing for babies and children, written by mum of two Tilly Walnes.

Filling a gap in the market, it will include six stylish, cute and wearable projects plus variations that are quick to make and practical to wear. The majority of the projects will be unisex, since there are currently few patterns for boys on the mainstream market for boys, from ages newborn to 12 years. Many of them will be mini versions of popular adult styles from the Tilly and the Buttons range or previous books.

Each project will include three pattern hacks or embellishments, including adorable novelty details that are fun to both make and wear. Designed to grow with the child, the patterns include clever details such as turn-up cuffs, buttonhole elastic and drawstrings.

The book will include full scale patterns in the back, also available as PDF downloads with layered sizes to save printing ink. The instructions will be presented in Tilly and the Buttons’ user-friendly style, with helpful tips and gorgeous step-by-step photos.
