Last weekend - I was on vacation. So, I had the opportunity to do some sewing! Oh, yeah! The only real problem is that I've made a lot of bottoms (1 dress, 4 skirts & 2 pants), but ZERO tops. I gotta fix that!
In addition to the red pants, I made a Pencil Skirt! And, it is so, so cute!
Here's the official Pattern Review:
Pattern Description: Mimi G's Pencil Skirt / Free Tutorial
Pattern Sizing:
I made this based on my hip measurement.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes it does.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
The instructions were super easy & it's a project that I was able to complete in about 3 hours (start to finish).
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Loved everything!
Fabric Used:
Rayon Challis print from fabric.com / it was on sale for about $3.99 per yard - 1 yard of 45 inch.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
No changes made.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I will make this skirt again! And, yes - I would recommend this pattern to others....
Conclusion:
Fast, beginner friendly project.
I want to thank Mimi G (www.mimigstyle.com) - for providing the free Pencil Skirt tutorial (http://www.mimigstyle.com/p/mimi-g-tutorials.html).
Thanks Beverly Reece from work for taking my pictures - I hate that we were rushing....

You fabric selection is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks! You know I shop the clearance section on Fabric.com.... I saw the colors on that fabric and I knew I wanted to make a skirt with it.
