Using my tried and trusted self-drafted a-line skirt pattern I made myself a new skirt the other day. I got some black linen/polyester blend and made my usual skirt with french seams, concealed zip and blind hem.
I also used bias binding on the waistband, previously when I've done this I've just sewn the binding on but this time I used the crease and stiched in the ditch on the other side.
I think I've done quite a good job
I also went back to the first skirt I drafted where I had made a very basic waistband and sewn onto the skirt. Unfortunately this made for a very unflattering and uncomfortable waistband so I took it off and replaced it with bias binding instead. It makes a much neater, more comfortable and pleasing waistband.
