Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this skirt with pink microsuede fabric and black stretch velour-type fabric. The fit wasn’t perfect (I made it too small at first) and then when I tried to fix the seams to make it fit, the waist kind of got wonky. Overall, it’s fun and I still get compliments on it, even though it’s not perfect. The colour is closer to the one in the detail of the closure than the others.
Material Notes
Microsuede, velour, fabric covered buttons.

Wonderful! I tried this skirt once with the same mistakes. Good to know that one can make it finally. I guess, you inspired me to try it again. Great job, I love it.
