Sew Liberated Patterns : Gypsum Skirt

The Gypsum Skirt is the fraternal twin of the Arenite Pants -- same ridiculously comfortable waistband and drapey pockets, more flounce. Layer it under or over dresses, wear it with a boxy top or cami, and shorten or lengthen the pattern depending on the season. View A has unique, crescent shaped pockets and instructions for French seamed pockets and flat-felled seam finishes of the four skirt panels. View B is the perfect introduction to garment sewing (or just a quick sew) with the same shape as View A, but sporting only two panels and inserted side seam pockets.

For women's sizes 0 - 24

Recommended Fabric
View A - woven fabrics with good drape such as rayon challis, tencel twill, silk noil
View B - same as View A, but can handle stiffer fabrics such as linen, double gauze, ikat, lightweight denim, quilting cotton
