Pattern Description:

You will have as much fun making this skirt as your favorite little girl will have wearing it! A great way to breathe some new life into some no-longer-needed t-shirts or to make from your favorite stretch knit fabric. The Rings-of-Ruffles skirt has a classic A-line skirt silhouette with a modern flair. Sure to get some attention wherever it is worn.

If you prefer to make your skirt from your favorite fabric off of the bolt, directions, yardage and cutting layout diagrams are included in this PDF as well as a size chart.

Each pattern is computer drafted and color coded to make it easy to put together and to keep sizes accurate. Each PDF also includes a very detailed tutorial with lots of color photographs and diagrams demonstrating each step of creating the design. The tutorials are written with terminology explained so you'll know what it means to say things such as "right sides together". :) My hope is to create PDFs that will take away the frustration of using a traditional big box store pattern and put the fun back into sewing.

I love this pattern and so does my oldest granddaughter!! Youngest one's not able to tell me yet whether she likes it or not. :) I had lots of fun picking the colors out and then deciding which to use next!! It turned out so adorable that I even had an adult ask it I would make her one!!! The instructions were clear and easy to follow.

I didn't have any trouble constructing the skirt, nor do I remember any, "what does that mean?" moments when I was reading the instructions. Most importantly, I had tons of compliments on the finished project. I would recommend this pattern for any sewing level because the project was easy, fast, and fun!
