Project 12: Straight Skirt

February 28, 2010 by Jodi 1 Comment

My first skirt.  All finished! Just in time for the end of the month.

McCall’s 3830 is really was a “quick & easy” pattern. I made it too complicated by fussing with the fit.  Now that I have it figured out, any future skirts will be a weekend project.

Skills Practiced:

  • Adjusting pattern (let out front darts, and brought in the waist)
  • Adding a lining.
  • Blind hem
  • zippers – UGH!  I really need more practice.

Now on to March!!

Sew Fearless is about a reckless pursuit of the sewing craft. It is about not letting your fears talk you out of your dreams. It is a place to go for encouragement, information, and sewing camaraderie. It’s a place where “done” is better than “perfect”, and where saying “I didn’t try” is worse than “I failed”. Read More…
