This skirt looks lovely. Your construction sequence sounds as if it would be quick, I will have to try it.

I have just made this one and am in the middle of making another. I like your suggestion of smaller gores.

Like this in your shorter version much better than the one shown on the pattern. Looks great on you.l

Ruthie your skirt looks beautiful and I am so happy to see this review - I bought the pattern a long time back but was put off by the pic on the envelope - skirt looks very droopy with uneven hem - now that I see your skirt I feel I should give this one a try.

Excellent review, Ruthie, and your skirt looks positively elegant. I'm a strong advocate of a 6 gore skirt with godets, perhaps one of the most universally flattering skirts devised. And the ability to shorten or lengthen - heavenly. Love your skirt! -Lily
