PATTERN REVIEW: PENNY POCKET SKIRT by Koda Baby

I was lucky to have been chosen as  a pattern tester for the Penny Pocket Skirt - what a cute skirt!. I love how mine turned out. This skirt can be made with any lace or preruffled fabric, but I chose to make my own ruffles from fabric with an effort to put a dent in my scrap fabric stash. It turned out ruffling my own fabric was really easy and added texture to my skirt.
The pattern can be found on Etsy. Its an easy sew and you wont be dissapointed.
