Butterick 5650…A Review
Soooo remember when Mimi made this skirt? I fell IN love.
Then she made it again…
Enter my version:
Pattern Sizing: 14-20
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? I didn't use the instructions
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? It was EASY.
Fabric Used: Poly Shantung
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made it longer, made the waistband wider, added belt loops and made a sash.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I am def going to make this one again. I highly recommend it.
Conclusion: Great pattern! Thanks to Mimi for the inspiration.
I had so much fun with Tony taking pics here are a couple extra:
One thing I did mess up on (and I KNOW BETTER) I hemmed it with my shoes OFF so I thought it was giong to be long enough. UHh. NERP lol. I needed it to just dust the floor. It will if I'm wearing flats lol. Next time, next time lol
