Description
My first lined garment, pattern alteration, patterned fabric matching…. A lot of firsts. I might have to re-tack the lining to the zipper at some point, but it looks good!

Hi there. Love this pattern. :) Can’t seem to get to your blog, however. It says the page has been removed, had its name changed or is unavailable. Should I just keep trying?
I was wondering about your pattern mods: Did you change the width of the hemline at all? Yours looks slightly less tight around the knees. Thanks so much! :)

I had to take down my website, so it’s not there. I should probably update that field in my profile.
As for the hemline, I didn’t change the width per se, but I did add that kick pleat in the back, which might have “relaxed” the bottom of the skirt hence making it less tight?
