I have made this skirt so many times but its my favorite pencil skirt pattern
I used a faux snake leather I got at Joann’s.
Pattern Sizing: I cut the 6
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow? I have made some version of this skirt so many times I think I could sew blindfolded and with arms tied behind mu back, LOL!!
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love the pattern because it is so easy to fit!
Fabric Used: Faux Leather from Joann’s
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? This is my pencil skirt TNT so yes, I always use it as a sloper and then I just add whatever changes etc.
Conclusion: I like the snake print, its kinda sexy, lol!

This is gorgeous! I love how it turned out and the material is stunning in it! I may have to pick up this pattern for myself. Love pencil skirts! Great shoes too, as a few people have pointed out.
