    I made view a of the Wattle skirt. Everything lined up well and went together beautifully and easily. I did end up making the waistband half the height so it would lie more flat and used 2 skirt hooks and eyes instead of buttons. I made it in a matte satin for a formal wedding, and it was a hit with the family. I'll be making a lot more!

    Great Skirt, Just what I wanted

    I made the long bias skirt and I absolutely love it! The button/tie closure is ingenious and doesn't require any zippers or the like. The pockets are so big and spacious and the front seam detail looks so nice! The instructions were crystal clear and I appreciate all the notches on the pattern for lining up different parts. Perfect pattern!

    Well-written pattern and a great skirt!

    This is a wonderful pattern with detailed instructions and tips throughout to help beginner sewists make a great skirt. And both pockets are generously sized so you can fit lots in them!
