Excellent pattern and instructions

I sewed up the Sinclair Skye skirt in a short amount of time. The instructions were excellent which always makes for an easy sew and less time wasted re-reading instructions. I followed Karina from Lifting Pins and Needles you tube video for some tips. I would highly recommend this pattern.

Skye skort

Made several. Loooove them. Easy to follow. Only trouble I had was sewing the skirt, shorts and waistband together. Basted them first and it solved that problem. Also left out the elastic when I used a lighter fabric. Will Def make again.

not a great fit and not a true yoga waistband or gusset

I was between sizes so sized up, yet it is quite tight and crotch seam rides up. Back rise is about 2" too short and front rise 1" too long.
Yoga waist requires elastic (which the pattern says "it doesn't matter how wide it is"), I wanted something quicker to make for that!
Flounce is not optional and is a huge fabric hog. Shorties have a weird shape to the rise.
Gusset is just where you cut off the point of the crotch on the pattern piece, and then sew it back on but double layered, so doesn't serve as a functional gusset in any way. I was hoping to be able to use this as a swim pattern but can't because of the lack of gusset.
Instructions are clear, so that is good but also very wordy unnecessarily which makes it harder to follow.

Unfortunately, this isn't going to work for me,

Love the skort new pattern but had run into an obstacle

Just finished my skort. Do love it but It is too long, made the longer one. I looked to see if there was a measurement for the finished skirt but there was not. It is about three inches too long. I realize now that I should have done the shorter version but did not know that measurement either when I started it. Is there a way to shorten the one I just finished without taking it apart (which I will not do). I am happy with the rest of the measurements and finished skort itself though. First time I did not have to make tons of muslins to get something to fit. Bravo!!!!
