Erin maternity skirt pattern

Great pattern, simple and straight forward with a classy wardrobe basic as a result. My prepregnancy measurements put me in a Small, and I made a Med. I'm glad I did and poetically could have done a large and been fine. I'm currently 28 weeks.

She loves this skirt. Thank you so much. The pattern came together in under 3 hours from cutting to wearing.

I've made three of these now and my daughter is very happy with the results. It's hard to find maternity patterns that aren't just 'hacks' of non-maternity patterns, so it was great that this has already been purpose-designed, and it still looks modern and not frumpy. It goes very well with the Cara T-shirt, which I've also made in multiple versions.

The pattern was very easy and quick to sew; it comes up small though, so go up a size or two unless you want very bodycon!

I made this for my daughter who is six months pregnant and she loves it. It’s a great work-wear piece.

Erin maternity skirt pattern

I’ve made two Erins in the midi length - perfect for transitional spring dressing when you’re 7 months’ pregnant and fed up of wearing the same two pairs of maternity jeans all winter!

For the first, I sized up based on previous reviews I’d read that this pattern comes up tight, but found that while that made the bump area nice and comfy, the skirt was a little baggy under the bump and around the lower hip area. I added a split at the back to make it easier to walk which, while practical, did distort the line of the skirt a little and it flares at the bottom. I used a quilted jersey for this version which had enough stretch and conveniently disguises knicker lines!

For the second skirt I graded to a smaller size at the hip and kept the split. Using a firmer ponte roma knit this time meant the line of the skirt was smoother/less flared despite the split, and the whole skirt was a more snug fit and really hugs the bump.

I feel like I might be able to modify these skirts post-pregnancy to keep wearing them, which would be a win as hate the idea of only getting two months’ wear out of these. They’re already wardrobe work horses.

Easy to make and looks good

Made this skirt in a black bamboo French terry to match many outfits as my maternity wardrobe is pretty small. It’s been super warm and comfortable so far this winter! I read some reviews that it fits on the smaller side. I normally wear a medium so I made a large and it fits well with room to grow.
Clear instructions for this nice simple pattern. Made it in record time.

I purchased this pattern to make a matching set during pregnancy. The fabric I used had a higher stretch percentage than recommended so I felt pretty confident that my 32 week bump would be able to hang out in it for a while. After sewing up the skirt, it's a little tighter than I would have liked (even with the stretchier fabric). I'll be making another one that's a size up and I'll also be lining it this time. Overall it's a good purchase but maybe give yourself an extra half inch on top of your actual measurements to make sure it fits comfortably. (This could also be because I'm carrying my baby VERY high which is throwing off the measurements? idk)

This skirt was very easy to put together. Made the skirt for my DIL -said The fit is great and most importantly it is comfy!

Had some difficulties deciding which PDF to print. Whilst the pattern was easy to follow I had some issues with the fabric choice. It really needed to have a lot of stretch in it in order to allow the wearer to move comfortable. Unfortunately anything that stretchy tends to be rather light for a skirt

I love the pattern, the hardest thing for me was to find a knit with enough stretch and recovery – went for a “punto Milano” and worked great. My advice is to size it up! I am now 34 weeks pregnant and this skirt is practically all I am wearing :)

Super easy to make and follow instructions, took the afternoon to make from start to finish. The only thing is the sizing, I'm about size 12/14 normally and I made the Large size, and it was very snug with not much stretch over baby bump and I was only 24 weeks at the time. Otherwise, great pattern.

The Erin skirt is the perfect maternity sew. Straightforward, simple, and looks good. I chose to make this skirt instead of buying a similar style and I’m glad I did! So satisfying and not too complicated when you’re pregnant and tired. :)
