Buy the Gypsum Skirt sewing pattern from Sew Liberated. Gypsum is the skirted sister  – same ridiculously comfortable waistband and drapey pockets, with more flounce, perfect for twirling through any season. Layer it under or over dresses, wear it with a boxy top or cami, and shorten or lengthen the pattern depending on the season and your style.

View A is great for adventurous beginners to advanced sewists, or anyone looking to expand their skills.
