The Bernadette Skirt sewing pattern from Friday Pattern Company. Bernadette is pleated in the front, darted in the back, and has two length options: mini and midi. Best of all, it features a super fun belt bag! The belt is closed with D-rings, and the bag has a zipper pocket, front pouch, and flap. This is a versatile and fun to sew pattern that you’ll want to make in every colour. Designed for mid-weight woven fabrics, Bernadette looks great in anything from linen to denim to a rayon twill! If you’re looking for a cute and comfortable skirt, you need Bernadette in your life.

Note: The Bernadette Skirt pattern includes the belt bag, but if you would like to purchase the belt bag only, it is available separately.

Suggested fabrics: The Bernadette Skirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured skirt. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a flowier skirt.
