| Mid length Libby in Kool Kat Spot and Mandy Boat Tee top in Ebony Jersey |
By now you should know that we really love releasing a new pattern. But we especially love releasing a new FREE (PDF version only) pattern! Sewing friends and readers - we're very excited to introduce you to our Libby A-line Skirt Pattern. This classic and simple a-line skirt comes in short (below), mid (above) and long
lengths (see last image below) and features a side invisible zipper, back darts and waist
facings.

This design came about because we were all-too-frequently being asked to recommend a great a-line skirt pattern. It's a perfect wardrobe staple and will swing quite happily between the seasons.
The Libby A-line Skirt is ideal made up in woven fabrics e.g. cotton,
wool, linen and silk. If using a stretch woven, be sure to make fit
allowances.

Libby is available in both digital PDF print-at-home/print copy shop version (free) and - for a limited time only - hard copy ($12).
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteoh yes. exactly what I have been looking for! thank you.
ReplyDeleteYour generosity is matched by your style, dear ladies; THANK YOU! Thrilled with this, was thinking all through Mmmay that I needed a good skirt pattern, Tessuti genius!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this pattern I have wanted to try patterns from the internet and wasn't sure how it worked. So this has given me the opportunity to have a go. And so far so good
ReplyDeleteBest wishes and when I have returned from my holiday I will coming to see the shop
Lovely, thank you!
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely pattern to look forward to sewing up. Love the Kool Kat skirt :)
ReplyDeleteOh lovely! I'm going to make a skirt using this pattern and the polka fabric I purchased from you last week. Hooray!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the free pattern, Tessuti!
ReplyDeleteI'm having some issues with some pieces, though. The front facing and shield pieces don't seem to be the same size as the front piece. The top edge of the front piece is longer than both the facing and shield pieces.
What am I doing wrong? :(
Hi Lynda,
DeleteWe have just checked our pattern again in the hardcopy and print at home print out and they fit correctly. How did you get your pattern? Did you print your pattern layout at home and was it printed to scale etc. Let me know so that we can work out why yours doesn't measure correctly.
Colette
Thanks Colette - everyone needs a good aline skirt pattern in their repertoire. The Niwa fabric in blue looks great made up in this pattern
ReplyDeleteThank you! Agree that A line skirts are such a staple. FYI, Officeworks printed my pattern (A0 size) for $3.99 and in 5 minutes.
ReplyDeleteHi, I was just wondering what the seam allowance on this pattern is? I cannot see it on the pattern? Thanks, Kat
ReplyDeleteHi Kat. Seam allowance info is detailed on the third page of the notions section. All seams (unless otherwise indicated) are ½”. Happy sewing!
DeleteThanks Collette! I must have missed downloading the instructions....I only had the pattern.....silly me, Kat
