Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I think this is a sweet skirt! Thanks to this site, I’ve become a more intuitive sewer and didn’t really need to read the directions for putting the zipper in. But guess what I did wrong! I put the zipper in the wrong way. That’s okay, I can pull it up from the inside! LOL. Easy skirt, and goes well with an owl sweater of mine.
Material Notes
Heavy cotton. Denim?

Nice skirt! I love the Marie pattern, I made one in wool for winter, but I’m kind of thinking about making a summer version too. About the zipper: ‘blind zippers’ have the pull-thing on the other side as where the zipper teeth are visible. If you’re used to ordinary zippers, it’s only too easy to put a blind one in inside out.

You’re right, this is a sweet skirt, I’m going to have to try it someday! And an inside out zipper…well that’s just a minor detail that you’ll surely remember next time! :)
