My New Favourite Skirt







I finally got around to making my circle skirt and I love, love, love it! It drapes so beautifully and is incredibly comfortable.







It's a full, twirly skirt, which doesn't work well outside on a windy day! Thankfully we were able to do a quick photo shoot between the gusts.


I used this tutorial for the pattern. My only change was to add a pocket, for which I used this tutorial (mostly for the shape of the pocket) and this one. I had never put in a pocket before, and these two tutorials made it really easy. Now I have somewhere to keep my keys or my phone without needing to take my purse everywhere.

I see myself wearing this one a lot, and maybe even making another one (or two!).



I'm linking up with Needle and Thread Thursday.

  1. What a great skirt, very pretty. I went back and looked at some of your hexagon posts, I love the stacks of basted hexies, I use the same basting method as you too!
