   A really quick and easy skirt to sew, made in an afternoon in black ponte as part of my autumn and winter capsule wardrobe.
   Lovely pattern, great shape, perfect fit 🖤

   Fruits of my labours from the last couple of days 😊
   A straightforward combo of a ponte pencil skirt and a long sleeved jersey top.
   I’m really happy with the garments, they’re both made with leftover fabric from previous projects.
   Gotta love a bit of sustainable fashion!

   Such a satisfying quick make and I love the subtle shaping…I’m not too fond of a turn back elastic waist so opted to make a simple casing to insert the elastic… made the shorter version to wear over leggings for winter.

   Looked forward to this. Looked lovely shape on paper. I am used to size 14 fitting me in the patterns I have tried so far. So stupidly I didn’t check sizing before sewing. Makes up big. I think I probably could have gone down 2 sizes. Have had to alter. But very quick and easy.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
