NEW PATTERN RELEASE: The Willow Skirt - 20% off through February 24th, 2026 with code: WILLOW

It sits right at your natural waist with a hemline that hits just above the ankle. The box pleats at the front and back give it a sweeping fullness that moves so beautifully when you walk. French seams keep everything looking just as polished on the inside as the outside, and the invisible zipper has bound edges — a high-end technique that’s a lot easier than it sounds and will seriously level up your sewing skills...AND there is a video to help you, if it is your first time.
We’re doing something new with this one — the Willow Skirt guides you to cut, sew, and fit the waistband before touching any of the other pieces. It’s a small shift in our instruction process for waistbands that makes a big difference in getting the fit right where it matters most. If this is a new process for you, try it out and tell us what you think!
Read more about the sewing pattern via the link in our bio.

Available in sizes: XXS-5X

What fabric did you use for the brownish tan skirt?

My next project in my sewing class is a skirt with waistband and zipper. I think I should try this skirt, thank you.

This skirt is soooo dang good! 💗 And I love the button up sleeveless top with the welt pockets too. Any clues as to when that pattern will be released?
