Pattern: Jenny from Burdastyle
Size made: 36
Fabric: 1.5 yds of cotton print jacquard from Joann’s, beige bemberg rayon to line.
Notes: This is the first time I’ve used a Burdastyle pattern, and it was a bit of a mixed bag – great skirt, lousy instructions! Let’s start with the good: this pattern fit very well in a 36, which is the size I am instructed to make by the size chart (I’m a 36 below and a 34 on top.) On the final skirt I did take smaller size seams on the hips, as this fabric doesn’t stretch even a little, and I was worried it might be snug. I think that was probably a good choice. The waistband fits fine, though my waist is not quite as small as the size 36 calls for. I did cut the waistband on the bias, as the pattern asked.
