The first garment I’ve made, and it turned out fine. I’ll make it again with a different fabric. I enjoyed it!
Amazing - your very first garment, Sara! So pleased you enjoyed it, and we can’t wait to see what fabric you try next. Abi x
I’ve made a couple of these skirts. One with pockets. One without.
I love the back wrap around. It’s great and doesn’t flash.
A comfortable and flattering skirt.
Really easy and clear instructions for a novice like myself. The skirt is really lovely - had lots of compliments when I wore it.
Thank you so much for sharing your Miette make x
Nice also for a non beginner to make easy projects! Made four skirts in a few days. Did inseam side pocket instead of those in the pattern but I will try them on my fifth one!
It's great fun hacking sewing patterns, so pleased you're a fan of the Miette skirt pattern. Team Buttons x
The Miette skirt was my first project. I adapted it a little bit in the sense that I made it a bit longer. I just started sewing a couple of months ago and have already made to skirts (one winter and one summer version, photo of summer version will follow).
The hardes part was aligning the pockets on the front since the fabric slipped the whole time, but third try was a success.
The summer version I made without pockets and in a viscose fabric (which was a challenge in itself 🤪)
Thank you Sabine and for sharing a pic of your Miette skirt. Team Buttons x
