HOW TO SEW A SKIRT WITH POCKETS | sew with me tutorial | me made | SEW LIBERATED

Today we're going to SEW the PERFECT SKIRT FOR SUMMER (with pockets!) by #sewliberated. It's a sew along tutorial with the step by step instructions for how to sew my newest favorite me made. This is the #sewliberatedgypsumskirt and has quickly become a new favorite for my spring/summer #memadewardrobe. After all, who doesn't love a simple #midiskirt with deep french seamed pockets.
The skirt that I made is a cotton/linen blend fabric and comes in quite a few colors (links below), has two perfectly large french seamed pockets (don't be intimidated-they're super simple to do), is mid length with a gathered waistband. It's really simple to construct and will become a summer staple in your ME MADE wardrobe (promise).

SEWING TOOLS I USED FOR THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL:
===========================================
#sewliberatedpattern
disclaimer if you are purchasing a PDF pattern, this means you have to print the pattern yourself (and tape together) or take it to a print shop to print the file. In my experience, this can be expensive depending on where you live. Call ahead to check prices for printing sewing patterns is a good idea and can save you money in the long run. I personally prefer to buy physical patterns when I’m able, but do what works best and is easiest for you and your sewing needs. I have both versions linked below.
