This Utility Skirt kit is for those of you who want an easy sew with brilliant results. You can make this skirt in a couple of hours and wear it straight away – that’s exactly how my passion for sewing started in the ‘80s.
It has an elasticated waistband so it’s really comfy. I wear mine slightly low waisted with a little T-shirt but you could synch it in high waisted and chuck a sweatshirt on. The choice, of course, is all yours.
It’s called ‘utility’ because it’s simple, versatile and very wearable, and because I made my one out of some fabric in my mum’s stash that was old lab coat fabric. Proper workwear!
The 3 pleats take the fullness out to make a flattering, flouncy yet formal little skirt.
Use the sew-along video tutorial to make this at home or come along to the DOLLY studio and we'll make it together.
