Purple skirt

Having reviewed my autumn wardrobe I felt I could do with another skirt, and that's how this came about.  I bought the fabric years ago in Fabricland intending to make a dress from it, but never got around to it so decided it was time to use it for a skirt instead.

The pattern I used was a vintage New Look / Maudella one, from the 80s I'm guessing, by the hairstyles of the models on the cover!

I made the four-gore option and there's not really anything to say about the construction - it was straightforward.


I've already worn it a few times, and it will be just as useful in summer with bare legs as it is now with tights and boots.
