My New Favourite Skirt Pattern!

Spotlight had a sale on Vogue Patterns recently and V7910 was one of the patterns I grabbed.



I have decided that I really need to incorporate pockets into as many of the clothes I make as possible so this was a good pattern with deep practical pockets.



I used a linen rayon blend fabric with a black poly cotton lining (I did a lining instead if waist facings),and top stitched in black. It was a simple pattern, fits really well and is very comfortable. It is a size 16.

I will definitely make this again and have been trying to decide how to incorporate it into a dress pattern.

(I think I found your blog via someone else's blog links) I really like your skirt; I have a RTW one like it I wear a ton, so I should get this pattern myself.
