Notes	I wanted a shorter skirt, midi rather than long so I cheated on my height when I ordered and said I was about 20cm shorter than I really am. Could be risky but the pattern still makes sense. 28/12/16: So far so good, the skirt seams are sewn up and overlocked. This fabric unravels easily. It's not rayon as you can press on a high temperature, but maybe the jacquard weave causes the unravelling. It hangs nicely and has a lovely swing as you move. This is another project put on ice until my invisible zipper foot arrives in the mail. :-( Note; when you put in the zip be careful to place it well down. Better to have to put a hook and eye than that the coils protrude on the top side.
