Kilt inspired Skirt (help please!)

[Standard]

Ali first let me say welcome back, we've missed you. Since I have no experience sewing a kilt I'll just add my comment that the suggestion of one apron pleated and the other not pleated sounds like a good way to go. It would certainly add a bit of versatility to the garment, and would (I think) help cut out some of the bulk in the front. Can't wait to see the pictures of what you come up with.

What makes me think that this is actually a circle skirt joined to the shaped yoke is that the hem seems to be very full. Compare the hem with the hipline which is quite form fitting and the skirt part seems almost smooth at the seam line there.

I can see why you want to copy it. It's a lovely skirt.

Yeah, I trhink dixiecat is right. Fitted, shaped, yoke, with a cut-out circle skirt attached to the bottom.
