Friday Pattern Co - Bernadette Skirt
About the Bernadette Skirt
You'll find the Bernadette skirt is so versatile. It is pleated in the front and has darts in the back. There is a belt bag integrated into the design, making it modern (and oh so handy). You can store your treasures in style. The pattern includes two length options: mini and midi.
The belt is closed with D-rings and the bag features a zipper pocket, front pouch, and flap. This is a versatile and fun to sew pattern that you’ll want to sew in every color. Designed for mid-weight woven fabrics, the Bernadette looks great in anything from linen, to denim, to a rayon twill! If you’re looking for a cute and comfortable skirt, you need Bernadette in your life.
The Fabric
The Bernadette Skirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured skirt. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a flowier skirt.
