The Lettie Skirt is a midi-length six-panel skirt featuring a partial button placket with integrated buttonholes, an elastic back, and flat piping details. The skirt's design creates a versatile, everyday staple with subtle details that elevate the garment. You can wear it with a tee shirt and tennis shoes for everyday wear or a button-up and heels for the office or a night out. The engaging construction details make for an interesting and enjoyable sewing experience.
The Lettie Skirt's design utilizes zero-waste pattern-cutting techniques and features interlocking pattern pieces that come together to create a whole. While the goal of designing a zero-waste sewing pattern is to use all the required fabric, the Lettie Skirt is minimal waste to accommodate a wide range of sizes.
