The skirt is very full with gathers at the front and back. I left the front gathers but unpicked the back panels and cut them down so that they attached to the waistband without gathering. Looks SO much better that way.<br /><br />M xMarinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465136896883390953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20246497.post-33069607215519280352011-11-11T12:16:54.855+08:002011-11-11T12:16:54.855+08:00Hi :-), have been following you for a little while...Hi :-), have been following you for a little while and am really enjoying your posts. I am new to quilting and sewing but am learning lots from lovely blogs like yours. I am about to have a go at this skirt as well but will be following Noodleheads sew-a-long since this will be the first thing I have made for myself since school :-), long long time ago! Good luck, will look out for your pics.

Why don't you just put pleats or reverse box pleats where the gathering should be. Fold them away from the middle towards your hips.

I was planning on making a Parfait soon - possibly this weekend - but I was going to leap right int without a muslin because I am too lazy....I'll be interested to hear what you had to change. Maybe I will muslin that bodice after all.....thornberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503174766017894067noreply@blogger.com
