Buy the Miette Skirt sewing pattern from Tilly and the Buttons. Miette is a gently flared wraparound skirt that ties at the front in a bow. The skirt has a wide overlap at the back (no danger of flashing!) and optional patch pockets. This is the perfect first dressmaking project for new stitchers - simple to sew with no fiddly zips or buttonholes and easy to fit!
