Pattern Description: Basic skirt in five variations. I made the longer straight skirt.
Pattern Sizing: I cut the smallest size as my first attempt (mustard cotton) turned out a little bit bigger than I wanted. I think there's quite a bit of ease in the pattern.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes (but better!)
Were the instructions easy to follow? Very
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? It's a great basic straight skirt
Fabric Used: Black corduroy
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I put pockets in again, using the instructions from Megan Nielsen's Kelly skirt pattern. I left out the kick pleat. Oh and I cheated with the button and used a popper instead of making a buttonhole!
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes and yes!
Conclusion: Great skirt, a wardrobe staple. And it's really comfy in cord! You can read more on my blog: www.tybalt-king-of-cats.blogspot.co.uk |
