Great pattern and instructions
The skirt came out super cute so I did a second one the next day with a completely different fabric :) Easy to understand and follow and it's a pretty quick project with a polished look

Perfect Capsule
I've had my eye on the Kelly skirt for a while. I needed to have some basic skirts/trousers, so I decided the Kelly skirt was perfect addition. It's a really simple skirt, with easy to follow instructions (as always). The pockets are great, although I will make them slightly longer for my own personal preference for fitting in all my dog-walking supplies. It stitched up in a day, and already planning corduroy and denim version.
