[@AlexJudgeSews]

You’re welcome ❤️👩‍🦰

[@Escape10mom]

Your top looks fantastic with that beautiful skirt!! So glad you found one you liked!!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks so much ❤️❤️

[@elisestewart5416]

Love that whole outfit. Those colours together are so great and the style of both garments work well together. I think you will wear that combo a lot. What a bunch of enablers we are - so many good patterns out there. Fabulous.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

You really are, although some of us are easily influenced 😁🙏🏻

[@wannabsewing]

After seeing this vlog I ordered the Arundel skirt pattern. Its great to support small designers. Just waiting for my corduroy fabric to arrive. I love the fact that she does a sewalong for some of her patterns ❤

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Ooh it’d be fab in corduroy, got to love a sew along 😁❤️

[@jounderhill6913]

Hey Alex! LOVE your skirt of many colours! You’ll get so much wear out of it...it could look good with a Forager Vest, too. And you’re looking great in that purple. 💜

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Oh thank you! I will make the Forager Vest, I'm saving it for when I fancy something quick and easy 😀❤

[@andrearyan816]

New look 6106 is my favourite skirt pattern. I love the pockets and shaped waistband. Your skirt looks great, I love the colours in the fabric

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Andrea, that’s great to know. You’ve got to love a shaped waistband 😁❤️

[@louisecampbell8094]

Thanks for sharing all the great skirt patterns Alex a good list to have. Your skirt is beautiful a simple but stylish design and fit. Great vlog as always xx

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks so much 🥰

[@carmenfringer4740]

Awesome suggestions....and boom. The walking skirt is on my wishlist 😂😂😂😂

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Oooh do it, those little pleats on the back 🤩😁

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

That is one l-o-n-g list of skirt patterns! You've done all the work for us! Two that jumped out at me and may need to be made soon: the Folkwear Walking Skirt and the Carla Skirt from Stokx. So pretty! And both along the lines of Simplicity 9180 but without all the waist gathers. I've just refashioned a dress into a skirt and I want at least 5 more! 😂 Must be that time of year . . . and that viscose is just stunning - I thought so when you got it and it's even more so in the skirt. Beautiful. ❤️😘☀️

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Don’t we have such lovely subscribers Jen! I love both those skirts too, you’re so right it’s that time of year 🥰

[@beckyb8339]

I'm from Sussex not far from Arundel and love that skirt and her other patterns so win win , great to support a local business. Thanks Alex.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Ooh lucky you, I love Arundel. I used to live on the Surrey/Sussex border in a little village called Chiddingfold, I missed being in a city but still have fond memories of that part of the country ❤️❤️

[@alexandrawellington8028]

OOOO such a perfect outfit...you look fab...I LOVE your shoes with it xxxx

[@AlexJudgeSews]

😘 I’m surprised you can see the shoes, they blend into my Uber white legs 😂❤️

[@msbdot1]

So many designs and designers I’ve never seen... thanks for putting this together!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Me too Sandy, it was a team effort 😁❤️

[@katehampshire8410]

It looks great with your purple top!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thank you, I’m pleased with how they turned out 😁❤️

[@jolifford4067]

Thanks for the round up, there are loads out there! Enjoy learning about new pattern companies too :) Also with you on the cm over inches. It frustrates me when there are only inches available! The finished skirt looks lovely.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Jo, I'm sure the inches gang feel the same - just give us all the information 😀❤

[@barbarabeckman6722]

Your whole outfit us stunning.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks, that’s so kind 😘❤️

[@deebuettner8017]

When I don't know what I'm going to make, I get 3 yds. I love the pattern you chose. Looks great on you.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Yes it’s a better length, I’m a bit stingy 😂❤️

[@karenlowes7802]

So happy you found just the right pattern. Love the finished skirt.🥰🇨🇦

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Karen ❤️👩🏻‍🦰

[@wannabsewing]

Skirt looks fab.

[@sallydingle321]

Hi Alex, what a great pattern and it looks really lovely on you 👌💝. Also lot's of inspiration with all of those other suggestions too 👍😁😘

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Sally, you’re always so supportive 🥰

[@noemir8262]

...and I like the top way better combined with the skirt 😉. Beautiful.

[@Brenda_O]

Fab pattern round up thank you. Love the end result - looks great!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@susanhardman5627]

Lavender top and skirt are a great combination! You look fabulous!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@marilynkelly315]

Love the skirt 👍

[@AlexJudgeSews]

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@sewing_myhappyplacepauline223]

So many suggestions I’m saving this list for future reference 👍🏻 This fabric is adorable and looks great made up in your chosen pattern.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Pauline, I’ve got a list now too 🤦🏼‍♀️😁

[@Frugalisama]

Love how the skirt turned out Alex, it goes beautifully with that top 😊

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks Sam ❤️❤️

[@deniseblake6214]

It looks fab!

[@nancyhilborn885]

Love the combo. As you would say 'spot on'!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

😁😁

[@thinkerandmaker659]

Oh - a brand new Aline skirt pattern! It’s by blue dot sewing patterns and called “the no-zip skirt”. I will make up 2 of these straight up for winter - one denim, one wool, and probably not the last as have had RTW skirts like this in the past so I know it’s a great cut for me, and of course “no zip”

[@AlexJudgeSews]

That sounds amazing, I’ll go and have a look now 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@lisajones1036]

Perfect Alex 👏🏻

[@AlexJudgeSews]

🥰

[@wolfgangshuman]

Such a beautiful skirt, well done!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Thanks so much 😁❤️

[@PsychicKathleen]

I just love your fabric and your finished skirt! You'll get tons of wear out of it. You inspired me to make some skirts this year - knit skirts that is :) I have a couple of RTW knit ones that I wear constantly throughout the summer - I find them the coolest thing to wear with a tee rather than slacks or even shorts. I wandered off to Style Arc (it's been ages since I visited their site or used one of their patterns) - I always love their styles but I often forget to check them I don't know why! I ordered the Ali Knit Skirt and Clara Knit Skirt patterns (hard copy - which is another reason why I love them!) Now I can't wait to work with these patterns! I have a couple of pencil skirt patterns too which I'm thinking I might use to make up in knit as well.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

That sounds great, I’m put off knit skirts because of the hemming. How do you find hemming knit skirts? I’m put off making one in case it’s too wavy. 👩🏻‍🦰😁

[@PsychicKathleen]

@@AlexJudgeSews I only wear knit skirts to be honest - my favourite have ruching (sp?) down the sides which I really like. I have a Coverstitch machine so hemming on everything is super easy :) A twin needle does much the same thing - I always use a hemming tape (by Sewkeys) which is basically an interfacing cut to a one inch strip and I iron that along the bottom and flip it up and hem. It keeps the hem stable and with the coverstitch it only takes a couple of minutes ;) You could ask your family to go in on one for you for Mother's Day! :)

[@lavadajenkins2955]

Love it!

[@mairead5891]

The skirt looks fabulous, especially with the top. You had a lot of excellent suggestions to choose from, I'm making a list for myself now x

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Couldn’t have done it without you 👏🏻👏🏻😘

[@sarahodonnell6957]

Gorgeous, whoops might have to buy some of those patterns 💙❤️🤣

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Me too! 😁

[@bridgetrsews]

Great choice with your skirt it looks lovely! Thank you for the comprehensive list of skirts, there are quite a few new to me patterns. I have never been sure about bias garments as we become “more mature”, I made a top last year and it was a bit clingy! Bridget R

[@AlexJudgeSews]

I feel the same, but they can look wonderful and I bet you’re the only one who thought that ❤️❤️

[@halesmoore]

Wow, so many patterns - I guess it's like wrap dresses, essentially they're the same but with different variations. Lack of finished measurements would put me off buying a pattern so it's odd they weren't included in the pattern. Great skirt and goes really well with your top!

[@AlexJudgeSews]

So true, you think they’re all the same, but when you look ... I hadn’t spotted the missing garment measurements when I bought it, but it turned out fine 😅😁👩🏻‍🦰

[@carolwebb9948]

Skirt looks fantastic. Thank you for sharing the skirt patterns. Also, I am curious... what colour thread did you use?

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Spoilt for choice! I went with matching one of the greens, mostly because I had some already and I used rainbow thread on my overlocker, which is very satisfying 😁❤️

[@carolwebb9948]

Fantastic 👍

[@noemir8262]

Thank you to all of the input from your viewers. This is full of wonderful suggestions 😍

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Team effort 😁

[@yvonnemaudsley4665]

Bernadette banner has a tutorial on how to make a walking skirt.

[@AlexJudgeSews]

Ooh thanks so much I’ll go and investigate 👍🏻😘
