One of my favorite features is the flat front, elastic back. I love an easy elastic skirt, really grows with your child, but I find that sometimes full elastic, if there is no drop waist, looks a bit full or young. The flat front is the perfect solution and gives a more grown up look to any skirt or pant.
The best part is that you get TWO skirts in one. Since it's reversible, all of your seams are inside, and completely hidden, so no need to use a serger, or zigzag. It comes together very quickly, even if you add the contrast band at the bottom.
On my next one I want to add some piping or ricrac to change it up a bit. I find it's a great way to make a holiday skirt, that can still be warn year round. Pop on over to Heidi's page today and check out this and other patterns. Her Cecily Rose dress is one of my absolute favorite patterns. Pollywoggles Patterns
