The Straight A Skirt Pattern Release & Giveaway (Closed)

by 133 Comments

And yet another thing crossed off of my list! The pattern testing is all done and now I get to release this pattern! The Straight A Skirt Pattern is another pattern that came into being because I wanted to make these for my little girl. I figured others would too, so why not just do a pattern? Plus, I have all these other sizes ready for when my little one grows.

The Straight A Skirt pattern is for a fun and comfy skirt that is made completely out of fabric. No elastic needed. The pattern shares how to re-purpose t-shirts, other knit material shirts, and regular yardage to create a skirt.

The main pattern is a basic one, like the first picture, with the first instructions on how to construct it like that. Then there are instructions on how to create one with all different pieces.

The skirt was created to give enough room for those little girls to be able to run around and have fun! It also was designed to come to the knee on most, for modesty and general comfort.

(Seeing all the girls makes me miss my friends in Jacksonville. Hi everyone 🙂 We Miss You!)

The pattern testers blew me away with their super cute skirts they created. Here are a few from them:

  18. Brilliant! I love the re-purposing of other stuff to make kids clothing… they grow so quickly that it just makes sense to create something from something that you wouldn’t otherwise use 🙂
