Why I love This Pick
I have made this pattern! It was one of my first me-made pieces. I picked up this linen from a local shop in haste. Looking back, I’m really pleased with what I chose. This was my first experience with darts and French seams, too! But the instructions are incredibly detailed and easy to understand. I would recommend it for any beginner sewist.
Peppermint Magazine and In the Folds have written a truly wonderful pattern. The illustrations are clear and detailed. The written instructions are easy to understand even for the most novice of sewists. The seam finishes in this skirt will help you to feel confident that this skirt can be worn in all seasons for years to come.
If you’re looking for more patterns from Peppermint Magazine, you can sew up the Peppermint Apron, Mini Sewing Kit, or a classic Bucket Hat.
