Whoopee!!! I've just been tidying/excavating in my craft room and by course came across some fabric I'd love to have as a skirt, even some for little Hana...what excellent timing!
Love that last one! I have a purple skirt with a brown ribbon on the bottom that I made when I was pregnant (jersey is the best for bellies) but those colors together are so much better!
I have a stupid question. In my head, I think I know this answer, but I thought I might should ask before I get all spendy.
I'm plus sized. Will this pattern tell me how to plus size the skirt? Is it a general principal that applies to any tshirt/design?
I just want to know that if I spend my $12, I can make a size 22/24 skirt to wear. I'm in mad passionate love with these skirts, so I just wanted to be sure before I jumped in head first.
Thanks for the skirt love!! It was wild to come home to all of your enthusiasm here and in my shop. I'm so incredibly appreciative!
Lacey, such a wonderful and valuable question. I don't have an answer, but a possible solution. The instruction does have a formula for expanding from a 2 panel skirt to a 4 for increasing width. I did not have a tester for plus sizes, so I can't be positive. You can e-mail me if you'd like to be the plus size tester!
For all you tall women, I have included tips for increasing length, too!
WOW! Maya this is beautiful. I love the one with the doily - what a cool concept to add a vintage doily to a simple skirt. I want to make that actually.
Excited! With a couple of very spring-like days lately this pattern will give us a little taste of summer on the way! Perfect timing to start planning our NZ summer wardrobes!
thank you so much for this, Maya! just reviewed the pattern this morning and it is beautifully done- so thorough, inspiring and lovely. Can't wait to sit down and sew!
I love this skirt!!! Beautifully done. I've posted photos of my version as well as a link back to your original on my blog if you'd like to check it out.

Maya,
ReplyDeleteCan I use my regular sewing machine for jersey, or do I need a serger? I LOVE these skirts!

The Reinvention Skirt is listed as "Sold" in your store. Will you be offering it again? My wife is very, very interested in it.
