Do you struggle to find a perfect skirt?
The only way to have a perfectly fitted skirt is to make it based on YOUR unique measurements. You might have tried some ready-made patterns and discovered that they don't solve the problem either. How could they? They are not designed for your body shape.
Let us teach you the best-kept secret: drafting your own skirt pattern is really simple. We made it easy for you: we stripped off all the complicated lingo or boring formulas. Follow our course step by step and you'll learn how to design and make DOZENS of skirts! Any style you want, as many pockets as you wish and all of them fit YOUR body perfectly!
