Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Finally, here’s my Kasia. I love this skirt. The fit is perfect, it’s a jeans skirt but still kind of classy since high-waisted. I actually wore it to the office today. I did not change a thing except that I reinforced the vent. I also think I’ll apply two hidden buttons between the waistband and the upper border of the front pocket. I used the selvedge so as not to have to neaten the seam allowances of the back seam. I’ll upload pictures of the skirt worn as soon as I find someone to shoot them.
Material Notes
dark grey jeans

Wow, excellent job. I’m hoping to make this skirt this weekend, and your photos and tips are extremely helpful. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, sieht wirklich total schick aus. Mein Kasia liegt immer noch in Einzelteilen ganz unten in der Stoffkiste … mal sehen wann ich ihn wieder anrühre.

Danke! Hoffentlich bald, denn es lohnt sich. Ich kriege ständig Komplimente. Und wenn man sich an das hochtaillierte gewohnt hat, ist er wirklich super bequem!

Oh Mann, da ist er ja! Sieht toll aus, das Futter ist süß :) Bin gespannt auf die Fotos, wenn du ihn an hast! Ich komm mir so schäbig vor, hab den Kasia nicht wieder angerührt … aber innerhalb der nächsten 2 Wochen schaffe ich es hoffentlich ;)
