BONJOUR

This skirt is fully made with French seams for a clean finish look. Its elastic waist offers maximum comfort whilst being extremely easy to make. No gathers are required except from the elastic to avoid puffy effect. The very comfortable pockets directly sewn in the side seams provide a beautiful relaxed look to this very girly skirt.

Just made my 2nd Bonjour Skirt

I love this skirt pattern! The construction details make it special—-French seams, the pockets, and even the hem. Absolutely will be making it again.
