Pattern Description:
Below waist pull on skirt has elastic waist with contrast facing, pleats, front extending to side back, no side seams ans right side back slit.

Pattern Sizing: 12 - 20

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
A little bit but I made some changes.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
It's a pretty simple skirt to assemble once you get all the pleats and tucks marked and sewn.
Fabric Used:
I used a stretch denim I have no idea where I got it.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I shortened the skirt by 10 inches adjusting the pattern by 6 inches at the indicated adjustment line and another 4 inches at the hem.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?

This skirt is not going to be sewn again. When my poor Project Runway model/wife tried it on I asked myself why I would sew something that adds bulk (i.e. pleats) to her backside. It just didn't look good.

Conclusion:

Just an opportunity to practice pleats.
