Wrap skirt sewing pattern

A simple sewing project for beginners- the wrap skirt “Rita”! “Rita” has a feminine “A” silhouette and is swinging nicely with its ruffle and the bias cut. Of course your fabric choice has also a big impact on the design- the pictures give you a first impression: The blue and the pineapple versions are in african waxprint (stable cotton), the pink long one in cotton lawn and the black/white one is in flowing viscose. I even tried a tulle version!

You can choose between a long and a short version and if you like to you can add practical pockets at the side seam, but these are optional.
