Pattern Description: Very Easy. Misses Jacket, Skirt And Pants.
View C: Skirt
Pattern Sizing: 8-14.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, just one pattern piece cut twice.

Were the instructions easy to follow? Did not have to use them. Only two seams, zipper and grosgrain waistband which I did not use. Instead I made a waistband.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love this pattern! The flow of the skirt is awesome. The finished length is 25".
Fabric Used:
This is the second skirt I've made from this pattern. The fabric used is a heavy suiting knit.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
No alterations per se. I did, however, use an invisible zipper extending into waistband, which I added.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Absolutely! I love skirts...
Conclusion:
This is a very simple skirt with lots of character. I love that it drapes nicely. I highly recommend this pattern if you can locate it or have in your file. lol.
