On one skirt, you’ll learn how to create a faux front placket, sew a buttonhole, and add hand-sewn buttons. For the other skirt, you’ll create a paperbag waist with a fun shirttail hem. You can even add belt loops and a sash if you’d like. Both of these wardrobe staples are ones you will love to wear again and again.
