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.
Very simple to follow, the videos are amazing. The end product is beautiful.
I love this skirt pattern. I have made this skirt an embarrassing number of times now. I see some nice material and must make a meadow skirt from it. The video instructions are ace. I thoroughly enjoyed this make.
Made a few skirts already and love this pattern! So divers, very detailed tutorial with videos (makes it even more clear!) and a beautiful finish.
Will make a lot more.
Beautiful finished skirt with very clear videos and instructions. I will definitely be making more for my girls.
This had easy to follow instructions and fitted well.
Generous pockets are great. Had a bit of trouble with the elastic at the back but that was due to lockdown and not being able to get supplies.
