Hello, friends!! Happy Friday, again!! I have a super fun little tutorial for you today on how to hack the Allegro Skirt pattern {aff link} by Love Notions into this super cute paper-bag waist mini skirt! **Scroll to the bottom for some amazing sale news!!**

For the skirt, I used a straight size 8 (my W:29.5, H:38), and only made a couple of small, very simple adjustments to get a very different look!

Next, you will want to do the same thing to the pocket so that it still lays nice and flat inside the skirt.

I shortened the skirt by cutting straight across at the lengthen/shorten line. Now, cut all of the pieces out, including the waistband; making no changes to the waistband. 

At this point, I assembled the skirt as usual. When I came to the waistband, I attached it as per usual, and then sewed a channel for 1 1/2" elastic, rather than 2" like the pattern calls for. This super simple change gave me the paper-bag waist look I was after!

After I had the waistband attached and the elastic inserted, I tried the skirt on. The hem still flared out a bit more than I wanted, so I curved in the side seam a bit to create more of a pencil skirt shape. The ruler below reflects the type of curve I sewed to get the end result. I'm in looove!!

After trying it on, I also determined the hem length I wanted and hemmed accordingly. This is highly individual and will be different for everyone. For mine, I did a fairly deep hem and hemmed another two inches from the length I had originally cut.

I used the tencel denim from Joann for this skirt. Tencel denim was the perfect choice!! It drapes beautifully and wears so nicely as well. I also used traditional jean top-stitching thread for a classic denim look. 

At the hem, I sewed two straight lines, 1/4" apart for a more casual look as well.

I was 100% inspired to make this skirt by a skirt I tried on about 2 years ago at Target! I'm so glad I didn't purchase it back then and finally made it myself! I did buy the tank top though. 😉

Happy Friday!! We've made it to the end of another week... One more down in 2024, woot!!

So to celebrate, how about a Feature Friday pattern!? Over at Love Notions, the La Bella Donna pattern {aff link} for women (Oh, and the Girl's La Bella Donna {aff link}, too!) is on sale for just $5 for today only!

The women's pattern has been newly updated with the extended women's sizing block, and includes so many options, as shown below. In celebration of the re-release, the pattern will continue to be on sale for $9 after today, through Thursday, the 30th.

I helped test the new version of this pattern and made the tunic length. In truth, this is the first short sleeve tunic I have ever sewn, or worn. It's not a style I gravitate towards, but I'm so glad I tried it, because I completely love it!

But the La Bella Donna in tunic length and short dolman sleeves is so perfect for pairing with some lightweight leggings!!

If you are looking for a quick, and I mean QUICK, and easy sew for this summer, this is the one for you! I sewed this up in about an hour, and for me, that is super fast. I even used the more time-consuming binding method on the neck and it was still so fast!

For sizing, I sewed a M on top, graded to a S in the hips. This is 100% the standard for me in Love Notions patterns, and the fit is spot on! I also shortened the tunic 1" for my height (also standard with LN for me), but if you preferred more length, more is easily added!

I made this up in a rayon spandex from my stash. I believe it is from Girl Charlee, waaaaaayyyy back in 2016. 👀 Their selection of tropical fabrics is fun to peruse from time to time! I've linked it HERE.

I really am enjoying my new tunic, and I can't wait to sew up some more of these quick to sew, and easy to wear, pieces for both summer and the rest of the year! Hoods, cowls, hem bands??? So many cute options!

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Sewing!
