Tie Dress Pattern - Sewing Therapy PDF or A0 Print + PDF
The Tie Dress epitomizes versatility and style by cleverly blending the ubiquitous appeal of customizable ties with the graceful silhouette of a classic dress. Featuring ties at the waist, this garment offers multiple closure options.
Moreover, the reversible neckline adds another dimension of adaptability, offering the choice between a subtle boat neck or a flattering v-neck, catering to a multitude of preferences and occasions.
Embodying a blend of charm and sophistication, this dress exudes cuteness, romance, and elegance. With short sleeves, it radiates a playful charm, while elbow-length sleeves evoke a sense of romance.
With the addition of lining, sewing this dress becomes an accessible project, even for beginners. The step-by-step sewalong video ensures that every aspect, including potentially challenging features like the inseam pockets, is demystified. If you’re new to sewing, tackling inseam pockets might seem daunting, but rest assured, you can approach them at your own pace. However, if you’re not ready to tackle inseam pockets just yet, feel free to skip this optional step.
In the sewalong video, I guide you through each step, ensuring that your sewing experience is therapeutic rather than overwhelming. Your sewing journey should be enjoyable and rewarding, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

SUGGESTED FABRIC
For the Tie Dress, I would suggest using fabrics that drape well and offer comfort, as they will enhance the flow and movement of the garment. Here are some fabric options to consider:
- Linen
- Double Gauze
- Lightweight Cotton
- Rayon
- Crepe
- Silk
The fabrics I used for my Tie Dresses
1. Cotton Double Gauze - Shark/Ocean Windowpane
2. Ethereal Grid Linen - Mint Fog
3. Cotton Lawn - Acorn
4. Cotton Double Gauze - Midnight/Denim Gingham
PREPARATION
Pre-wash and dry all your fabrics as this will prevent your garment from shrinking. We recommend you read the instructions thoroughly before sewing.
PATTERN PRINTING (At Home (A4/Letter) / Copy Shop (A0) / Projector)
At Home (A4/Letter) :
When it comes to printing the pattern at home, we offer two versions.
The first is a standard version that is 36 pages and includes all pattern pieces. The second option is 20 pages, saving you paper and ink. This option provides the measurements for the Side Panel, Sleeves and Ties, rather than pattern pieces. Select the option that works best for you.
For your convenience, layer options for each size are included in the pattern. Please ensure that your printer settings are adjusted to a scale of 100% or set to ‘Actual Size’ for accurate printing.
A0 (Copy Shop) Option / Projector Option
We offer both A0 (Copy Shop) and Projector options. You can find the files in their respective folders. For your convenience, layer options for each size are included in the pattern.
