This was so much easier than “draft your own”. I’m going to be a lot bolder about picking up more of these books now.

Very cool! I didn’t know there were any “trace off” Japanese patterns – I thought they were all “draft your own” like Ms Stylebook..

I put it off, too, a little concerned that it might be frustrating and unrewarding. Those great photographs convinced me to try it. It turned out to be one of the most instantly rewarding things I’ve ever sewn! (And fast, too!) Making it was just as much fun as oogling the book — I hope you’ll make your own great skirt soon!

I bought this book last summer and I also liked this skirt, but of course haven’t gotten around to making it. Yours is GREAT!!
