Sew Liberated : Gypsum Skirt Pattern

$32.95 CAD

This product is unavailable

The Gypsum Skirt is the fraternal twin of the Arenite Pants - same ridiculously comfortable waistband and drapey pockets, more flounce. Layer it under or over dresses, wear it with a boxy top or cami, and shorten or lengthen the pattern depending on the season.

View A has unique, crescent-shaped pockets and instructions for French-seamed pockets and flat-felled seam finishes of the four skirt panels.
View B is the perfect introduction to garment sewing (or just a quick sew) with the same shape as View A, but sporting only two panels and inserted, side seam pockets.  

Sizes: this pattern includes sizes 0 - 24.
*See images for more sizing information.

Suggested Fabrics: The Gypsum Skirt is designed for woven fabrics. For View A, look for rayon challis, tencel twill, silk noil, or other fabric with fantastic drape. View B can handle a slightly stiffer woven fabric in addition to those recommended for View A. Good possibilities include mid-weight linen, double gauze, cotton ikats, and lightweight denim.

Fabric Requirements:

  • View A: 45”-wide fabric: 3 1/2 yards, or 54”-wide fabric: 2 3/4 yards
  • View B: Sizes 0-12, all fabric widths: 3 1/4 yards. Sizes 14-24, all fabric widths: 3 1/2 yards

Additional Supplies: 2” Soft Waistband Elastic
