Rachel Melby –
I can not recommend this pattern enough! It goes together really quickly and drapes so nicely no matter how intense your hip spring is! I would definitely recommend cutting on the bias for such a lovely look! I used a striped fabric and it gave a wonderful chevron in the front and back!
Malu (verified owner) –
Although I love the shape of the skirt and how it turned out in the end, I unfortunately can say I’m pleased with the pattern. I (a beginner) made if with a friend who is quite experienced and w both struggled a lot with the instructions. For example, the pattern pieces all have a letter, but the letters are never mentioned in the text so you keep having to look, there is also clearly a letter missing that is mentioned in the text but not assigned to a Petter piece. A lot of the instructions leave quite a bit open to interpretation which makes this pattern go from a skirt pattern to a riddle which makes it take way longer than it should. It does look very nice, and the chevron idea is great.
