Hi gunstreetgirl, Thank you for your kind comment on my Michelle skirt! Regarding the problem of being shorter in the back, I had no alteration to the pattern. Because I have a pair of sad and flat butts on the back, I mostly have even(front and back) length on my skirts. But yes, I agree with you, many would have that problem. I guess it might be improved by adding some room for the butts (not for hips, I hope you understand), I mean, making back skirt larger with making tucks a bit bigger without changing waist size.
