The overall skirt is really nice and a good fit, but the instructions leave a lot to be desired. They’re so brief it’s hard to know what they’re saying. It’s a good thing I’ve been sewing a long time otherwise sorting out what was what would have been a lot more frustrating than it was.

The finished skirt turned out really nice, but not without a lot of frustration. Some of the pattern pieces are mislabeled and the instructions are really brief and without a lot of detail or photos/drawings which made for a few times I didn’t understand what was wanted and then had to rip out what I had done and try again. I have been sewing my entire life, but still appreciate more detail in instructions. I will try making this again, but with all the notes I made to myself during the construction of my original piece to help me out!

This is a nice simple and classic jean skirt pattern! I used a linen blend and probably should have sized down since it relaxes a bit more than a denim would.
The drafting is great as always, but some pattern pieces seem to be mislabeled/or instructions incorrectly flipped r/l side, which caused some issues with construction (ex: right pocket should be left).
I recommend cutting two waistband pieces for a nicer finish instead of just turning down the top of the waistband to finish it as written in the pattern.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
