skirt burda 118

BWOF Skirt 118 from 8/2007 A-line with side panels [pleats] front and back sections plain.



Fabric is a blend of wool and acrylic from fabricmart. I will underline it with fine cotton batiste.







I really like this pattern however my choice of fabric was all wrong. I will make it again, but next time it I will use a much lighter fabric probably a nice gabardine.















Way to bulky for me, feels like I added three inches to my hips.











This fabric frayed like crazy, I really think its more suitable for a coat. Its a very heavy skirt to wear, great for artic type weather I suppose.
