The famous Mimi G sewed up my tulle skirt pattern and LIKED IT! 

​Plus she certainly wears it with style.

The few tutorials I wrote for this pattern have been my most read blogs posts, so lots of people are sewing this.

Here are links to the tulle skirt blog posts.

Inside Yoke Explained

And here is what Mimi had to say.


Pattern Description: Simplicity #1427 Misses Tulle Skirts Various Lengths
Pattern Sizing: I cut the 6
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes the instructions were clear and easy to follow.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I always love tulle skirts so when I saw Simplicity release this pattern earlier this year I knew I would be making it.
Fabric Used: Tulle (HERE)
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: The only thing I did different was use less tulle. I used about 1 yard less because I didn’t want it as full as the pattern.
Would you sew it again? I already made it in black (shown HERE) so probably not. I do however recommend this pattern.

    I am a commercial pattern maker who is now "sewing over 50"!
    I love to sew and hope to encourage others to come back to sewing.
