This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Sewing Studio: Fashion Fitting, Home Decor & More »

Instructions

Watch the video all the way through. This is my second skirt and I thought I wouldn't need to follow the video so closely......oops I forgot to stay stitch the skirt before doing the darts. It worked out okay!!

The cotton lining is so much better than the regular lining material.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Traditional, Classic


Materials

Skirt is rayon and wool, lining is cotton shirting. Invisible zipper. I re-made this from a full length skit that I had but was outdated.

What was your inspiration?

To make another skirt and to use this fabric. This was remade from a full length skirt I had that was a bit outdated.

What are you most proud of?

That I completed the skirt without any trouble installing the invisible zipper.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Watch the video, as this was my second skirt I thought I wouldn't need to follow the video so closely. Oops, I forgot to stay stitch the skirt before doing the darts. It worked out okay!!

The cotton shirting is much better than the regular lining material.

The lining lookS FA-BU-LOUS!!! and match the colors of the fashion fabric so weel. I love it. You did a great job and should be very proud of yourself. I have been used to regular lining material until now, but I love the idea of shirting as lining: so much stable and durable.
