RE: Beware of the A-Line skirt: making the Delphine skirt from Tilly Walnes


And the A-Line... sigh .... I am still unconvinced that it isn’t a punishment for female sewist...🤣 But - being serious - you are perhaps right, that most pattern are for a completely different body type, one without curves. Before I decide to sew a pattern, I normally research, if there are reviews of plus size woman (as I am more plus than straight size at the bottom) For the Delphine Skirt I found many slim woman who ade the skirt but no curvier ones. It wasn’t my best to use the pattern anyway.
And thank you so much for the compliments. Although I find the fit super nice on me, I really love the Color and have worn it several times so far.Yes absolutely!!! Autumnal colours. I just wrote in a comment above to @marblely that corduroy reminds me of the Wales and Scotland. In my imagination the countries are inhabited mostly by fairies, magicians and they all wear beautiful pants and skirts made of corduroy (paired with hand knitted cardigans and crochet bags) 🤣 My explanation is, that I have read too many fantasy novels or watched Harry Potter one time too often...
