I love this pattern and most importantly the video tutorials for assembly. Highly recommended twig and tale patterns !
Very nice pattern. Easy to follow. Finishing up one tea length out of linen as gift to my mother. Just love this positive website and patterns that are beautiful and useful at the same time. Thank you.
I am new to sewing, but I love to make things, especially knitwear. I have a two year old granddaughter who has more sweaters right now than she can use. So what to do? Learn to sew. I made the meadow skirt in a thin denim and the result was great! Excellent instructions, love the video's. I am now attempting the path finder vest, hope I didn't bite off too much.
Another beautiful pattern by twig and tale.
Excellent instructions, calming well shot video tutorial. All the pattern pieces line up perfectly, no fudging needed. The finishes are top notch. Very easy to create an heirloom quality piece.
True magic in a pattern!
Pictured is: knee length pleated, full back with tie in 100% cotton.
Loved this pattern - so quick and easy to make! Instructions very cLear. Love that there are so many sizes. Will be making this beauty for years to come!
I’ve already made two and have another one ready to sew. As with all T+T patterns the instructions are very clear and easy to follow and the pattern is very well drafted, I’m in love with it and I’ll be living in these skirts during our summer!
Can do so many things with this pattern. All steps are easy to follow and results are beautiful. :)
1. Need better instructions for maternity waistband on what seam is sewn first and which seam is sewn to the skirt.
2. Need an updated version for less gathering in the front like you have for the back. The next skirt I make I am going to use the back slimmer version for the front. (I want a slimmer look all around the skirt.
