SEWING PATTERNS
The Story
In her honours year, tbo designer Freedom researched into the negative impacts The Fashion Industry has on the environment and people. It was then she swore she would never have a run-of-the-mill fashion label that produced masses of material goods for profit.
She wanted to show that there are other ways to buy into a brand that had considerably lower consequences to the planet, and encouraged a stronger connection to a piece of clothing.
Let customers speak for us
If I could give 10 stars I would!
I'm super new to sewing. Odd pair of trousers taken up now and then.
So I thought buying a pattern is a great first step. This is a great way to get into the bug of sewing.
I have made one and already making one for my mum for her birthday.
I love the fact you can make so many different dresses and styles from the one pattern.
Highly recommend!
Beautiful silhouette
The Gracie Wrap Bundle is a beautifully crafted pattern with a very extensive instruction booklet and easy to follow video. It's so customisable you can makes endless combinations of sleeve, neckline, length types you can make a totally different dress every time if you want.
I absolutely love the silhouette that my mid thigh, short puff sleeve, deep square neck gracie wrap dress gives, it's one of the only items of clothing that I feel comfortable wearing post partum🩷
Beautiful Pattern
The pattern and instructions are so clearly set out and easy to follow, it made it a delight to follow along and work from. The hard work in making a pattern available in a broad size range really shows and is really appreciated! The Rossi came out as my summer linen dress of dreams, and customisations make it a really versatile pattern and one I’ll be coming back to time and time again!
Obsessed!!
I've made two versions of the Rossi/Fredy dress, and I absolutely love them! The patterns were straightforward and clear to follow, and I appreciated the sew-along videos for reference, as I am a visual learner. The pieces came together nicely, and the outcome is a gorgeous, versatile dress. Thank you so much!
Best dress pattern!!!
This is the best dress pattern ever! The instructions are super detailed and the youtube video is incredibly helpful! I have made six of these dresses already, they have easily become a staple in my wardrobe!
Amazing pattern
I just love my new dress. This pattern is everything I love in a dress - big sleeves, no zips, no buttons, waist ties to show shape. A lovely make and great instructions with lots of different options.
Such beautiful patterns
I've made both the Fredy and Rossi patterns now and they turned out so great! The instructions were easy to follow and the dresses got so many compliments!
Excellent pattern, so rewarding!
I'm a beginner-intermediate sewer. The YouTube tutorial was so helpful, and between that and the pattern I've been able to create 3 gorgeous garments. The pattern bundle is great value for money, as you can make a bunch of customisations.
One of the best patterns - gorgeous result
Long I've been struggling if this pattern is worth the price. Now I'm glad I decided to buy it because the dress turned out to be gorgeous. There are many ways how to combine the multiple ways of variations and I'm sure that I'll use this pattern several times in the future.
Great patterns and lovely dresses
Great patterns with precise measurements, easy to follow instructions and good video aids that result in beautiful dresses. Very happy customer.
Stunning dress
From the moment I saw this dress I knew I wanted the pattern. I thought it would be too hard for me to make as a beginner. But the instructions and videos were amazing. And I have already made 3 dresses and a top! My favourite was made recycling a quilt cover, the Gracie makes for a perfect upcycle!
In love
I fell in love with these dresses the first time i saw them! When the Gracie came out i got it for my birthday! The joy! And then came the Rosi & Fredy! My word…. I wish i had more hours in a day!!! Secretly hoping a pattern for Devon will come out😁 keep up the good work Freedom!
Princess Seams... is there really anything else to say!
I finally took the leap today and purchased both TBO pdf Patterns and I don't regret it at all, now to order lots and lots of linen! I cannot wait to get sewing, this pattern is so well designed and written - maxi length options and princess seams, need I say more!
Have Loved this Pattern from a Distance for far too long
I have been wanting to buy the TBO patterns ever since Freedom started posting and looking through the files of my first purchase I can see how wonderfully this pattern has been written and how well this dress has been designed. Thank you for sharing your designs as patterns and I cannot wait to get sewing or to purchase my next pattern!
My absolute favourite pattern
I fell in love with The Bold One dresses a few years ago, and was so excited when freedom released the Gracie pattern! I have now made three of the Gracie dresses in just about every modification. I am a intermediate sewer, and without any zips or buttons, this dress could be made by a ambitious beginner to an advanced sewist. The written instructions are super clear, and the video helped me through some of the trickier parts (like sewing the waist straps/dress together). I can’t wait to make so many more of these in every colour and fabric
