Description

After seeing Cindy’s beautiful Kasia, I decided to bring out the pattern from the stash and make one for myself.
I love the ruched design, which adds interest to the skirt, and is a little more forgiving to the figure. I omitted the buttons due to preference, but added inner buttons (2) to hold up the front skirt panel.

This project took attention to detail, lots of reading the instruction over & over, and making sure all the pieces line correctly before actually sewing. I like the end product, thank you Cindy for inspiring me.

Material Notes

Cotton Satin (slightly stretchy) China Silk for lining Interfacing

    Oh yay it’s done Mary! You are so quick on finishing it and looking really good! I love the print you chose and the folds. Where do you get your fabric from? I notice you always have some nice fabric on your pieces. Omitting the buttons on the front differently made a difference, it’s more fresh and versatile this way! Congrats on another job well done! :)

      Hi Mary! Gorgeous fabric. We are visiting Beijing and Shanghai later this year, so I should really trying to spot a fabric store there too. :) I would LOVE to do projects with you sometimes. Maybe we should set a date to meet after your place is done with remodeling. Still haven’t been to your new place and would love to catch up with you. :)
