Rhonda in Montreal said... Wow, Ruthie!! Your 1st version of this skirt was an XL--now a S!! Goooo, Girl!!! 5/22/09 3:42 PM
Judy Wentz said... You have some good ideas. I sewed this one time and did not like it....think I might try it again, using your suggestions. jw 5/22/09 3:46 PM
RuthieSews said... Thanks Rhonda, I went back and checked my first review and its true! That first skirt was an XL! Its a great pattern then for any sizes because you just fold the sides in to the next size down and cut again :-)
Judy, yes it seems to be sized for someone much taller, so when shortening its worth making new smaller godets as well. 5/22/09 3:47 PM
