VERDICT & LESSONS LEARNT
A very easy thing to make but do not like this fabric – too bright, too stiff. Will not wear this skirt
Not a bad fit but could need a few tweaks for different fabrics as it sits just a tad low on my waist.
For a sturdier fabric might be better to taper the waist a little without changing the hips
For a finer or more delicate fabric, this is the correct fit
