I’m new to sewing and don’t have a family member who sews and can give me guidance. I’ve been finding reading patterns very challenging. This one was easy though! A great beginner pattern to build confidence. Now for the first time ever I can proudly declare “I made it myself”. I get compliments on this skirt every time I wear it because it’s so cute!
This skirt pattern was so simple and very easy to customize. I added a lining and a fabric lace trim to mine. I can definitely see myself making it again in another fabric!
This is a fantastic pattern that I can see me making loads this summer. Very quick sew and beginner friendly. Thank you Matchy Matchy.
I was ae to finish this skirt in a couple hours including the time it too to refit the waist. The instructions were very clear and for te most part spot on.
2 things I'd flag:
You absolutely should measure the elastic *stretched*. Make the elastic as tight as you'd want to wear it and then add about 1.5-2in depending on how much overlap you'd like there to be.
Also I shortened the skirt about 4 inches and it's still a midi on me worn on my natural waist (I'm 5'3 with a 30" inseam, 42.5" floor length skirt length from waist) so definitely do some measurementa before hand because you may not need at much fabric for the length you'd like to
I LOVE this skirt. The final product is incredibly wearable. It was a very easy make.
