This Butterick 5649 has been a TNT pattern for me for many years. I either had to alter the skirt I made in December or just re-make another one. Remake it was!
I really should remake this pattern from the original instead of altering an altered version. It may make things a little easier. From my altered version I took in 1" at the side seam allowances. That's 4" overall! I also shortened the skirt 2" making it top of the knee length. I really do love this pattern.

Until next time..................

Isn't it funny how we would rather make a whole new skirt rather then alter one? These look so great Bonnie, a classic, comfortable look to take you into summer. I think I have this pattern, I am going to take a look, this is very similar to a rtw skirt I have.
ReplyDeleteYes, I would rather make a new garment than alter one. I sometimes envy those who re-fashion a garment. It"s a great pattern, I just made another view and really like it too. Happy Sewing!
DeleteLove, love love denim anything! Especially love the white for summer (in your case - most of the year).
ReplyDeleteI love that we can wear white most/all of the year!
