Beautiful pattern but hem takes real time to hand stitch

The circle skirt is a wonderful pattern and the fit is exactly as expected. My only note is that the curved hem on a full circle is very long to hand-stitch and requires patience. A twin needle rolled hem is faster but the instructions focus on the hand-stitch method. A note on alternatives would be helpful.

Shortened to a mini length for a different vibe

I made a mini circle skirt by cutting significantly above the standard hem length. The short length with a full circle is a very playful silhouette. The pattern's simple construction makes adjusting the length completely intuitive.

Anise F.
Made a tiered circle skirt by stacking multiple layers

I sewed two shorter circle tiers to create a tiered full skirt. The pattern's waistband construction was easy to adapt for the additional volume. The resulting skirt is very full and incredibly fun to wear.

C
Clara C.
Added a lining for a more polished result

I lined my circle skirt in a smooth cotton lawn and the silhouette looks much more intentional than an unlined version. The lining also stops the outer fabric from clinging to tights in winter. A modification I'd always make on a circle skirt.

V
Vicky F.
Second version in a heavier fabric came out even better

My second circle skirt in a midweight cotton denim came out more structured and less floaty than my first, which I actually prefer for winter. The pattern works across a wide range of fabric weights. Really versatile.
