Fiore Skirt or Holyoke Skirt Class -- Beginner/Advanced Beginner Garment Making

While we're caught somewhere between summer & fall, a skirt is the perfect layering clothing item to add to your wardrobe. We've chosen two beginner friendly patterns to choose from --  the Fiore Skirt by Closet Case Patterns or the Holyoke Skirt by Cashmerette. Learn how to take measurements, read a pattern, and add buttonholes or zippers, depending on the pattern.
