Wrap Around Skirts come in many different forms and are popular especially during the summer. Last year I got an idea to make one for an upcoming autumn season. Although it may not seem obvious at first sight, this type of skirt is very easy to create if you enjoy pattern drafting. Now if you want to know how I designed mine, keep reading 🙂

I have always been fascinated by handmade products, as well as being appreciative for those coming up with leading creative blogs and for those posting nice photographs of their gorgeous work. Although I never really had any plan or project in my mind, which could put me among those creative people, one day something unexpected happened.

Honestly, I‘ve been around sewing machines since my early childhood, as my dad first bought me a toy sewing machine from Russia, while he was on a business trip. I think I was about 6 years old at the time and the machine was fully functional, so I immediately started with my very first sewing projects (I especially remember some kind of a small round pad that I created for my toy baby carriage, which I still have to this day!) However, as I grew up, I sadly had to put my marvellous tiny machine aside and the only sewing machine noise that I could hear at home came from my mom’s sewing machine, which she was using quite often.
