I love this pattern. I made myself an Estuary Skirt and my daughter wanted a copycat. I made the pockets like the Estuary but followed directions for everything else as written. Your pattern is the best written I’ve ever followed. I appreciate all the extra effort you put into it. It definitely translates and makes it all the more enjoyable. Will be making many more!
Almost perfect sew first time except I slightly stretched the material when I had to fold the waistband over to topstitch. Really easy to follow.
I love this pattern
Great pattern. My 5YO great niece picked the fabric.
This is a great pattern. I love all the videos for the steps and it is very easy to put together.Love the pockets!! Will be making more for sure!
I made the skirt length half way between below knee and midi line. I’m 5’4”. I hadn’t realised that is was meant to be warn sort of hip length whereas I wear skirts like this at my waist as it suits me better. As a result it sits just above my knee. Still a lovely skirt, just not what I was after but that’s not the patterns fault! So just make it longer if you wear skirts higher up. I did the faux button version. Sorry about the photo, I haven’t ironed it yet! Instructions are super.
This was my first make with a Twig and Tale pattern and am so pleased with the result. Super easy to follow instructions and loved having options to make the skirt unique. Little Miss is very happy with her the new addition to her wardrobe 💛
Meadow Maxi Skirt is my first big sewing project since college. And also my first sewing project solo without any expert support from great aunt, mother or mother-in-law. With the help of the great video instructons I made this great skirt, it is an easy pattern. Love the different opions. Definitly more skirts in different lengths will follow.
