Shepherd Skirt

 Slim fitting jeans skirt with a back split and shaped waist band. This is a pattern that we would advise making a toile first, firstly to adjust the fit if needed but secondly to familiarise with the pattern instructions. We have not used a traditional run and fell jeans seam, we have chosen instead to topstitch the seam, which is easier to achieve on a domestic machine.

We have found that a heavy duty thread rather than a topstitch thread gives a more authentic look to the topstitching and is easier to use. You may find that you get a better stitch using a matching standard 'sew all' thread in the bobbin.

Size UK 6 - 18.

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.

Skill level - experienced.

Fabric suggestions - 8 - 12.5oz denim (up to 14oz with a heavy duty sewing machine)
