Pattern Description: Skirt has self-lined yoke, ovelapped side seams and narrow hem.

Pattern Sizing: I made a Med

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? its a skirt and its a little different

Fabric Used: Kind of a lofty, 4 way stretch knit

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I shortened it 6 inches

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes and yes

Conclusion: I made this in a medium size, but next time I will make it between small and med and also shorten the yoke some too. The instructions have you clip the fronts which is unnecessary since the fronts are lapped over the backs. It seemed strange that the center front and center back seams aren't topstitched like the sides and lower edges, although, both these seams could be left out entirely.
