Inspiration...Chino Skirt

Skirts. Skirts. Skirts.  Do you like wearing skirts?  I like having skirts that are easy to wear and go with everything in the wardrobe.  Few skirts actually fit that description but this one might:


This is the Boden Daisy skirt.  Price tag: $65.00.  Details:  Cotton or cotton/lycra blend, fitted straight shape, sits below natural waist, finishes above knee, 2 front pockets, unlined, exposed back zip.

The only thing I'm not excited about on this skirt is the exposed back zip.  Otherwise, this is the perfect everyday skirt.  The Boden USA website has 4 colors/variations on this skirt and you really should check them out so you can see the details a little closer  Here's a pattern that will work fairly well for this skirt:


This is Colette Selene skirt pattern.   View 3 is almost identical to the Boden skirt.  Small change - don't cut out the detail on the pocket.  That's it folks. 

This skirt is already on my list of things to do  Except I'm making it in a dark charcoal stretch woven.  Hopefully, it will get made soon.  Then I want to think about something similar to the inspiration skirt but perhaps in a navy twill.  Hope you are inspired to create something beautiful.

Happy Stitching!
