Welcome to my listing for this fabulous knee length summer skirt sewing pattern.

This is a Laura Marsh Designs original pattern and can only be purchased direct from myself.

This skirt is very easy to make and would be an ideal beginners project, or a quick sewing project for anyone in need of some lightweight summer clothing.

The skirt has two layers, a longer bottom layer showing a contrasting coloured fabric with a shorter main fabric layer on the top. The picture above shows the skirt with a waist band, however I have included brief instructions on how to make this skirt with an elastic waist should you find it easier.

The skirt is slightly gathered at the waist, and when finished give a lovely light and airy skirt which would be great for wearing all summer long. For an autumn skirt, substitute the light weight fabrics for something a little heavier for that bit of extra warmth.

The back of the skirt with the waist band option also features a zip and a fastening (hook and loop or button etc)

This pattern will require some knowledge of sewing and an understanding of what pattern symbols mean (if you not sure please search on line for pattern symbols or refer to a good sewing book).

Approximate amounts of fabric required:

1.5m main fabric (light weight cotton, cotton blends, or other light weight woven fabrics)

1.5m contrast fabric light weight cotton, cotton blends, or other light weight woven fabrics)

lightweight interfacing (enough to fit the waist band)

1 zip 18cm long (normal or concealed)

A suitable fastening (hook and loop, button, skirt/trouser bar etc)

Or, 1.7cm wide elastic if making the skirt with an elasticated waist, enough to fit your waist measurement.

Please read the instructions for further information on fabric requirements etc.

THIS IS NOT A PRINTED PATTERN:

To save you money this pattern will be sent on a CD in a digital format. This means you can use the pattern over and over again, without worrying about tearing or marking the pattern, so it’s ideal if you need to make any alterations, as if you make a mistake you can simply print another.

The patterns included are size 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 (see size chart below). These are FULL SIZE patterns (this is an all in one/multisized pattern so you can adjust the pattern should you be an in between size, and cut the size you need) , so there is no need to worry about enlarging or scaling up the patterns, all you have to do is print them off on A4 paper and assemble the pieces (full printing instructions are included) and cut out the size you need.

Instructions are included with guide photos for reference.

To keep the cost of the patterns down, I will not be sending the CD in a jewel case, the CD will arrive in a protective sleeve, which will be well packaged to ensure it is not damaged in transit, however you may wish to store the CD in a jewel case for future use.
