Digital PDF Sewing Pattern (no paper version sent): High-Waisted Paper-Bag Pencil Skirt
Pattern code: mc2-1124
A chic, easy-to-sew skirt designed for a flattering, polished look.
Create a beautifully tailored silhouette with this high-waisted, paper-bag style pencil skirt. The elasticated waistband forms soft gathers for a modern cinched shape, while the back darts ensure a smooth, refined fit over the hips. A clean one-sided seam with a stylish slit adds comfort and a contemporary edge. The length is fully customisable, allowing you to sew anything from a knee-length work skirt to a long, elegant silhouette.
This pattern is ideal for beginners looking for a simple yet professional result — quick to sew, easy to fit, and endlessly versatile.

As always, it's impossible to give fabric amounts for every fabric type and every size. For clarity, I provide yardage for both the smallest and largest sizes, based on a suitable fabric width. To stay on the safe side, you may follow the largest cutting layout for any other size.
