*note to self* "Wash fabric before sewing. Check. *big grin* As a rank beginner, I really appreciate your review! This will be my first pattern, methinks. I agree with Lou- your's looks bounds better than theirs! If you were to do it again, what fabric would be ideal do you think?

I have been eyeing the "Learn to Sew" patterns on the Kwik Sew website, thinking that I should sew one of those for my next for-myself project. Thanks for reviewing one of them! Your skirt looks lovely, and that wrap-around style never seems to go out of style.

Great skirt. I love this style. It's always nice to have an "immediate satisfaction" pattern in your stash. Good job.

Sabrina, the envelope suggests light to medium weight woven fabrics such as cotton, cotton types linen, challis, rayon & rayon blends. If this is your very first project I would suggest a medium weight cotton. It should behave nicely for you.

Your skirt looks great-nobody would ever guess you sewed it yourself. I love the Kwik Sew Learn-to-Sew patterns, (and I have been sewing for 40+ years). They produce a wearable result that even experienced sewers can enjoy making. I have had my eye on this one for a while, and will definitely make it soon. It looks like the perfect pattern for teaching a beginner.

Thanks Jeanie. I just found this site today and I have enjoyed looking at all of your projects. I will use this pattern for teaching my daughter. Debe

Your skirt looks great, and it sounds as if you've already found your first favorite pattern. Like Mini, I've been sewing since the dawn of mankind...okay...40 years - but one of the first reviews I posted here on PR was for a knit tee-shirt style top - a KwikSew Learn to Sew pattern. I think KS does a great job on the styling, fit and instructions for this line of patterns. Your skirt proves it. Nice job!
