I reckon you should give it another go in denim (the non stretch variety) and the lines (twill?) on the denim will make the pockets more obvious all well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22008807.post-20986339109371052742013-08-30T13:51:54.880-04:002013-08-30T13:51:54.880-04:00I love this skirt!

I often find that the pattern guide has me install the zipper too late in the construction of a garment. But I don't seem to think about it until it is too late. Hence why my seam ripper is my best friend and most used tool in my basket. Great job! Fits you well!

I didn't even give this pattern a second look until I saw your version. REALLY love what you did with the pockets.<br /><br />This skirt will take you right into fall - I can see you wearing it with a chunky sweater and boots!KimPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713499438047823595noreply@blogger.com
