My Take on McCall’s 7906

As many of you have seen, this skirt pattern is very popular among sewists and with good reason. It’s stylish, practical (it has pockets) and it’s easy to make. I made View C using a stretch cotton sateen that I fell in love with when I saw it.

In the picture above. I’m wearing it with a self tie belt I made from some leftover fabric I had. This particular version doesn’t have the self tie belt that View D does.

The pockets in the skirt are actually deep enough to be useful (LOVE that).

The only alteration I made to the pattern was to use the size 18 waist and size 16 hip. I really could have just made the 16 I think since the waist is just a bit looser than I would like (YAY me! All that exercise is paying off!).

But here are some other ways I styled this skirt.

Overall, I love this skirt and expect to get a lot of use out of it. The fabric is heavy enough that it’s not see through. This skirt has all the colors I enjoy wearing and should be a fun addition to my wardrobe!
