} catch(err) {} This is a new pattern that I’ve done before in a straight skirt style. What I did this time was use a fine cotton that would not billow out too much. When I tried on the shell, I could see through the fabric. So that I wouldn’t offend anyone, I’ve lined the skirt. The waist is reinforced with cotton twill tape and I’ve added black lace on the hem. It’s not that noticeable but it’s a bit girlie, so this is going to be a weekend skirt. I’ve used a normal zipper on the side seam and ignored the centre back seam offered in this pattern. With this fabric the centre back seam was a waist/waste of time.
