sewgirl said... Wow, how pretty. This is the second New Look pattern I've come across this weekend that looks so appealing. They seem to sew up very nicely. What a well kept little secret!! 1/4/04 10:29 AM

drsue said... very pretty. I've never been a fan of elastic waists but yours looks great. I may give that technique a try. 1/4/04 3:52 PM
AnneM said... Thank you, thank you, thank you for reviewing this pattern. I had looked for a knit gored skirt pattern and hadn't found one. This is just what I was looking for! 1/4/04 6:55 PM
Lisa Laree said... Thanks so much for reviewing this pattern! I'm going to have to try the pants on it -- pull on style, straight legs, and pockets! 1/4/04 7:49 PM

joan said... Cindyann, your skirt is lovely. I really like the looks of the waist area using the serged-on elastic technique. What width elastic do you suggest? 1/4/04 8:56 PM
cindyann said... Joan, I used 1 1/4" sport elastic because that's all that I had, plus I really like the way it feels. Nice and soft. Here is Georgene's review of a skirt where she describes the process in detail. http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/readreview.pl?readreview=1&ID=1852 You may find non-roll elastic better. 1/5/04 7:28 AM
