Pattern Description: Very loose-fitting flared skirt and tapered pants. B, C, D: Side seam pockets.


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
