When the weather is hot, all I want to wear is skirts and dresses. This skirt is pretty high on the list of things that need to made:
This is the Layla Linen Skirt from Boden. Price tag: $160.00. Details: 80% linen - 20% recycled linen, machine washable, relaxed silhoutte not too loose, sits at natual waist, functional pockets, falls mid-calf, and elastic waist with drawcord fastening.
Love this skirt. Here is my choice of patterns:
This is the Love Notions Allegro pant/skirt pattern. The long version is pretty perfect to use for this type of skirt. Yes, I know the slits are different than the inspiration photo but that is okay. It would be easy enough to change the center front fold to a seam (do not forget to add the seam allowance).
Linen fabric is pretty easy to find. Fabrics-store.com is my favorite linen place. Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.
Happy Stitching!
