This week I started and finished a skirt for my cousin Amanda. She had received the fabric as a gift from her boyfriends parents when they went to South Africa. I used a simple Butterick pattern and all in all it only took me a few hours to cut, sew, and finish. The last time I used this pattern I had used the version that had pockets and a proper waistband with facing, both of which ended up complicating the process quite a bit and taking much longer than I expected. I had also used the version that had pleats, which became in issue for fit and I had to redo a few of the pleats. This version however was so simple that I'm planning to make another skirt this weekend! Originally the plan was to make us matching skirts out of this fabric, but I didn't quite have enough. Anyway, thanks for reading and I will update again soon!
