Once you have made your pattern pieces, you can use them to make this skirt over and over again, so store your pattern pieces in a folder with a photo of your finished skirt for reference.

{02} Draft the front skirt pattern and cut two front panels

To make the front skirt pattern, draw around the back skirt pattern onto your pattern paper and add an additional 7cm (2¾in) to the long straight edge and cut out (see photo). Use the front skirt pattern to cut two front skirt panels from your fabric.

{03} Sew the front panels to the back panel

Unfold the back panel and lay it out flat. Place the two front panels onto the back panel, with right sides together and matching up the side seams, and pin in place. Sew the side seams with a 1.5cm (⅝ in) seam allowance, working from top to bottom. Press the seams open.

{04} Mark the darts

Fold the back panel in half to find the centre back, marking the centre point at the waist. Unfold and make a second mark half way between that centre back mark and each side seam to mark the position of the back darts. To mark the bottom point of each dart, measure 20cm (8in) down from the waistline and mark. Use these back panel markings to transfer the position for the front darts onto each of the front panels.
