Pattern Description: Misses' & Miss petite skirt in two lengths and slim pants sewing pattern.

Pattern Sizing: Misses & Misses Petite 8-14

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? I was really drawn to the 3 waist detail variations

Fabric Used: a dark purple cotton twill from JoAnnes and lined with red Ambiance lining

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:I made a 12 Petite and pegged a few inches in at the hem. I faced the inside of the waist band with a fun purple & red cotton to eliminate the bulk of 2 layers of twill

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

Conclusion: The fabric weight & color will wear well in all seasons except maybe mid summer and I got quite a lot of wear of it since I made it
