Take it away, Asmita!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When the Garibaldi skirt pattern was released, I was excited because, for the longest time, I wanted a skirt exactly like this but had not found the right pattern to make it. I was also itching to sew something with a fabric other than cotton or linen (my go-to choices), and an A-line skirt seemed simple enough to do just that.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80267\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting-760x908.jpeg\" alt=\"Woman sitting on a bench wearing a red Garibaldi Skirt, red button-up cardigan and red flats\" width=\"760\" height=\"908\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting-760x908.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting-500x598.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting-768x918.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-sitting-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Because I was planning to make a skirt in a new to me fabric, I decided to stick to the simpler silhouette and go with version B. I made a muslin in size 10, but that proved a tad tight on the waist and so went up to size 12 on the waist. With only two pattern pieces, this alteration is very quick to make. Version B has a waist facing, and so the real challenge was how to attach a lining to the skirt. Here is how I went about it:<\/p>\n<h3>Attaching the lining<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>I folded the lower long side on the facing towards the wrong side by 3\/8\u201d after attaching interfacing to the facing fabric (also my main fabric).<a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing-.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80260\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing--760x915.jpeg\" alt=\"Skirt facings basted and folded\" width=\"760\" height=\"915\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing--760x915.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing--500x602.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing--768x925.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/0-prep-facing--1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Just as one would cut the skirt&#8217;s front and back pieces, I cut the skirt\u2019s front and back in lining fabric as well (with a 1.5\u201d shortened length in case of the lining)<\/li>\n<li>Take one piece of lining, say the front. Keeping the right side up, I aligned the front facing piece on it, also with the right side up (i.e., the wrong side of the facing was now facing the right side of the lining).<a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80261\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS-760x702.jpeg\" alt=\"Line up facing and lining\" width=\"760\" height=\"702\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS-760x702.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS-500x462.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS-768x709.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-facing-WS-on-lining-RS-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>I edge-stitched the bottom edge of the facing to the lining (photo insert: edgestitch facing to lining bottom edge)<a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge-.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80262\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge--760x926.jpeg\" alt=\"Edgestitch facing to lining\" width=\"760\" height=\"926\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge--760x926.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge--500x609.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge--768x936.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-edgestitch-facing-to-the-lining-bottom-edge--1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Finally, I turned around the entire thing so that the wrong side of the lining is now facing up.

While I think it is possible, one needs to keep in mind that in this version, the skirt has no waistband and so could possibly (along with the lining) stretch without anything to hold it up. The facings, which are only about a smidge shorter than the skirt, hold up the skirt nicely at the waist, and ultimately add to the comfort.<\/p>\n<p>Once the lining is in place and attached to the facings, I simply followed all the steps for sewing the side seams as I would with the skirt. The zipper is now nicely ensconced between the two layers, and the skirt has a very neat appearance inside out! Finally, I simply hemmed the lining like I would the skirt. (photo insert: inside lining). (If you are wondering why my lining has two different fabrics, that\u2019s simply because I made a mistake and didn\u2019t purchase enough fabric for the lining and had to make do with a different shade of red that I had at home)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80266\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-760x1140.jpeg\" alt=\"Woman standing wearing a red Garibaldi Skirt, red button-up cardigan and red flats\" width=\"760\" height=\"1140\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-760x1140.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-500x750.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-768x1152.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-front-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-80265\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-760x1140.jpeg\" alt=\"Back view of a woman standing wearing a red Garibaldi Skirt, red button-up cardigan and red flats\" width=\"760\" height=\"1140\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-760x1140.jpeg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-500x750.jpeg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-768x1152.jpeg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/skirt-back-1200x649.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s it, and it was as simple as that!
