Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is my version in brown corduroy (the only colour i could find in my fabric shop) so i had to work with it. I loved the gathered pockets and buttons at first, but my brother says it’s terrible and looks like it’s from the 50’s and the fabric is curtainy. Now I’m having second thoughts :~
Material Notes
Brown corduroy, Gingham for the lining, black buttons

I love this skirt. If I had the figure for this pattern this is how I would make it. Very cool. Just remember, being stylish isn’t about what you wear but how you wear it!

the more I look at your Kasia, the more I want to try making this skirt. I’m always afraid of those pockets construction. really love your version, it really has character!

I agree with all of the above. Ignore your brother, boys are hopeless sometimes!!! I like the colour and love the big buttons.

I quite like it! Was looking for a fabric to make Kaisa in, and I never thought of corduroy, but I think it looks great!

Your brother doesn’t have a clue … ;) I think it looks great, you put the Kasia skirt in a completely different style!

I respectfully disagree with your brother; this is a wonderful skirt.

I like your skirts (Linda and this Kasia): they seem so warm and comfortable! Don’t pay attention to your brother or, if you like better, kick him!
