Pattern Description: Misses Tulip Skirt

Pattern Sizing: Size 10

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? For the most part. There was some confusion about the waistband construction but after reading it several times I started to understand.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I wish that the pattern had a lined option for the skirt as well

Fabric Used: I used a medium weight striped wool suiting type of fabric for the body and a heavy weight linend for the binding and waistband.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I did not make any alterations

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I would sew this pattern again.

Conclusion: This was my first attempt at constructing a hidden zipper and I was worried that there would be too much bulk at the top waistband and the top would be uneven on either side but with some patience I was able to ease the zipper in evenly. More about my lack of experience than the pattern itself.
