The Going Places Skirt - Pattern and Instructions
The Going Places Skirt is a double box pleated skirt ideal for conversational border prints fabrics.
I developed a love for double box pleats when I was looking for an alternative to circle skirts to add variety to my sewing. Box pleats enable fullness without the bulk of gathers: as the fabric is folded rather than scrunched, it gives a smoother line from the waistline, which I like. With single pleats the hem sweep is limited to 3x waist size, so I doubled up for more exuberant fullness, perfect for twirling!
My first multi-size pattern, the Going Places Skirt is available in sizes from 26" to 40" waist.
