I made this Crescent skirt during the Sewaholic Crescent Skirt Sew-Along hosted by Tasia. I used a classic black and white satin organza print. The pattern was a dream to follow, especially with Tasia’s guidance. Thanks Tasia!
More at my blog, Sew Well.
A classic black and white satin organza print was used for the skirt, an ivory silk organza was used for the interfacing, facing, and pocket front, and a black zipper was inserted in the center back seam.

I love this version of the Crescent skirt! I have this pattern but I’m waiting to find the right fabric to make it up in.

You should definitely make up this skirt, especially since you already have the pattern. Tasia just hosted a wonderful Sew-Along, so if you get stuck or want to think about changing things up a bit (adding a lining or taking out the pockets, for example), you should look through her posts.

Thanks! I am happy with the fabric as well. The pouf of the satin organza goes well with the fullness of the skirt while the fitted waist band gives me some shape.
