Pattern Description:
Narrow skirts with ingenious back view. Flattering darts and shaping cross seam.View C with back godet Pattern Sizing:
36-50 - I made the 36 View A Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
yes Were the instructions easy to follow?
yes What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
simple lines and nicely shaped, especially liked the back yoke Fabric Used:
some kind of synthetic - but no stretch close up fabric Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I had made View C previously and kept the same changes - shortened sided dart and tapered out a little of the hip curve - I found it to be an easy skirt to fit. Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I might make View B sometime, but I have other skirt patterns I'd like to try, but I would recommend this to someone looking for a simple pencil skirt. Conclusion:
The fabric was a little tricky to work with, but I was able to press it using a silk organza press cloth. Thanks Dharma for great pricing! back with jacket side
