Lovely skirt but strap length adjustment could be clearer

The skirt itself is beautiful and I wear it all the time. My one note is that the instructions for adjusting strap length could be a bit more detailed — I had to unpick and redo mine twice before the length was right. A diagram at that step would really help.

W
Willa M.
Added front pockets by modifying the side seams

I added in-seam pockets to the side seams which the pattern doesn't include. The modification was simple and the skirt now has two deep, functional pockets. Highly recommended modification — pockets always make a skirt more useful.

Francesca P.
Cut it in a bold check fabric for maximum impact

I made the Iris in a large red-and-black check woven fabric and the clean lines of the skirt let the print be the star. No complicated construction to distract from the fabric. A really strong combination.

Trista T.
Made a matching set with a simple top from my stash

As an intermediate sewist I made the Iris in a wide-stripe cotton and paired it with a simple tucked-in top I already had. The coordinates look really intentional and polished together. The skirt pattern is clean enough to pair with almost anything.

G
Gunhild K.
First skirt with straps and it came out really well

I'd only made simple waistband skirts before the Iris, so the suspender straps felt like a new challenge. The instructions made it manageable and the result looks professional. I'm really pleased to add this style to my sewing repertoire.

If your bust/waist/hip measurements align with different sizes, you would want to choose the size based on the apparel category or the garment fit and make adjustments to blend sizes. For example, prefer the size based on your bust measurement for making a top, and waist measurement for a relaxed dress cinched at the waist. 
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.
