Too much Toner Cartridge

Pattern was fine. Easy to follow. Made a nice skirt. That being said, it was 69 plus pages and it would be cheaper to buy a pre- made pattern than using up an expensive toner cartridge.

A
Astrid J.
Elastic casing instructions were slightly vague

The instructions for the elastic waistband casing were generally good but the guidance on elastic length was less specific than I would have liked and I ended up with slightly more ease than intended. It was easy to fix by shortening the elastic before closing the casing. The rest of the pattern was well written.

C
Christiane Y.
Added a split hem for easier movement

I added a small split hem at the front by extending the hem facing and it gives a nice modern detail. The base pattern made this modification easy because the hem is straight and the facing technique adapts well. I will definitely include this in every version I make.

Lesley C.
Waistband finish is particularly clean and neat

The instructions for enclosing the waistband gave a really professional finish. I have made gathered skirts with visible topstitching before and the technique here looks much cleaner. Cut a size 12 and the fit was accurate from the first try.

T
Tabitha L.
Even gathering result was really well achieved

I have been sewing for three years and consistently struggle with gathering but the technique described in this pattern gave me the most even result I have ever produced. The finished skirt sits perfectly with no bunched areas. I cut a size 10.

If your measurements fall between sizes, consider the fit you prefer (looser or tighter) and the type of fabric you'll use, as some fabrics have more give. All patterns include finished garment measurements which can be helpful to know how much ease or extra room is built into the design.
