Pattern and Instructions: The Ingrid Skirt
You've been asking for a simple, vintage-style A-line skirt for ages, and here it is!
We've elevated this 1940s classic with a full lining, a shaped waistband, and optional patch pockets with decorative button flaps. It can be made as a skirt separate or paired with any bodice in the Stanwyck series to create an elegant dress.
I hope you enjoy this glamorous basic. Don't forget to use the hashtags #ingridskirt and #charmpatterns so I can see your latest Hollywood-inspired make!
xoxo,
Gertie

Does anyone know what top Susie is wearing? I love this outfit 😍 thank you!
I think it's the Skiper bodysuit, in the barbie collection.
Perfect! I have one I drafted but this is much nicer. And the pockets are great!
I've had a half-finished scout dress that I wanted to put an A-line skirt on for 6 months and I'm so excited I can finish it now! Thank you!!
I was just about to attempt to make a pattern of an a line skirt based on one in my closet! Saved me so much math. 😅 Anyone have any suggestions for modifying the waistband to a straight waistband? (Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of curved waistbands on my body)
Ask (in the annual survey) and you shall receive!
Ohhhhh, throw all the UFP's to the side lol 😆
I was not expecting a skirt! I've wanted one like this for ages so I'm very happy!
Thank you for this!!!!!! ❤️❤️💕💕❤️❤️💕💕
It’s PERFECT!! 😍💖😍💖😍💖
Thank you. It's simply perfect. What is the pink top? Is it Barbie?
My brain is not braining - what jacket is Susie in?? I have seven yards total that I think is calling for this!
Yes, a collarless Brooklyn.
This and a ruffle added to the bottom - with the stanwyck bib and shoulder ruffle - 😍 a perfect pinafore!
OOOHHH! Don't threaten me with a good time
I love Japanese cotton canvases in those pretty, pretty prints and I have been looking for a skirt pattern and here it is! Thank you!! Here’s one of the prints that I love….le sigh! https://shop.missmatatabi.com/collections/fabric/products/cotton-steel-vintage-garden-canvas-29191
I'm in love with the fabrics on this site. Thank you for sharing
I haven’t been able to sew since I broke my dominant hand in a car wreck last October and I still don’t have 100% use of it back yet. But this skirt. Oh my sweet Goddess! I am definitely going to attempt this! I love the Stanwick skirt and I have a feeling this is going to rank right up there. I have been hoping for an A-line skirt and this is perfect!
FINALLY 😍
Oh my badness, the Double Indemnity!!!!
So cute!
WOW!!! STUNNING ♥️♥️♥️
I'm back with this project! Thank you❤️🪡
perfect addition to the charm library! i’ve been wanting 40s styles, so this is moving to the top of the to-make list. love the cute waistband!
I reeeeeeally love the waistband on this. Nice.
Did you know today is my birthday?! Susie's outfit is EXACTLY my style, and she looks ridiculously gorgeous (as always). Now that I have my dream skirt pattern, I don't know what I'll wish for when I blow out my candles!
Happy Birthday to you!!
Yay!!!! ☆Does a happy dance☆ Oh I can see this being my new favourite! Thank you thsnk you! 💖💖💖
@gertie heads up the Plotted Pattern is temporarily closed for a few weeks😢
I know I am so sad about this!
Finally! And it’s pretty! 🥰
I feel like this would be the perfect skirt to add to the bodice of the rosie jumpsuit for a uniform dress look.
I’m so needing one for Semi one. It’s perfect for a KAJ cosplay
So pretty, nice lines! Thank you!
I love!!!! What bodice is used for the black and white polka dot dress?
Was just about to ask the same question. Wondering if it is the night and day?
Love the dress!!!
I like this. Very practical for daily wear. Thank you!!
Cute 🥰🥰🥰
Thank youuuuuu, I SO hope we get a lovely 30s or 40s style jacket to pair with this and make a fabulous suit!!
Love all the Stanwyck series pieces in this year's theme ❤️
I asked for a skirt lite this in the survey 😍 Super cute!
😍😍😍
Love this sooo much! It’s perfect! But I need the details on the polka dot version because I need that in my life!
Yes I'd like to know what top Block has been used🤔the night and day maybe 🤔 I've got just the right navy crepe with tiny White flowers for that dress 😃
Oh this is so damn good!!!
Omg yes! I downgraded my subscription because I’m trying to learn to knit instead because I can’t get down with this glamour theme, but this a banger. 10/10 let me pull some fabric out right meow 💛
What if I make this in a knit??? 👀 April fools I know that waist band could never.
You totally could make it with a stable knit. Just make sure to interface the waistband and zip
I absolutely love this!❤️
omg Suzie looks so good in that buttery yellow suit!!!
I'm so excited I could cry! This has been my #1 request on the survey for a few years!
It's perfect, just what I've been looking for!
Love the yellow! So perfect for spring. All cute options. 😄
That looks so fun!! All the outfits look great! What bodice did you pair it with for the black polka dot dress? 👀
I wanna know too!
Love this! And the belt loops are a win!
Uh, I feel like I could join the "French resistance" in the dotted dress
Love this skirt!
Beautiful style lines! Thank you, team!
Just what I need for Saturday! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Yaaayyy!! I’ve been hoping for an a-line skirt for a while! 💛
Omg those little pockets are such a cute detail. Love this skirt. A line is a preferred style of mine. Thank you charm!!
I love it! 😍
I see me making multiple of these. So cute and definitely a staple piece for any wardrobe
I'm feeling obligated to make this one since it's my name. 😊
Love this!!!!
This is the perfect separate outfit for work!! 😍
Yaaaaaas 😍😍
