Diamond 2: Pattern update

The promised pattern for the elastic-waist A-line skirt is in the works. I made the diagram last night and then used it to make myself a new pattern piece, both because I needed a new pattern piece and to make sure the diagram was correct. So far, so good.

Since this is a simple pattern and I don't have the technical capabilities to do full-size patterns, the "pattern" will be a scale drawing on graph paper, with instructions for sizing it up. Don't panic--it's not complex and there will be lots of explanation for those of you who, like me, haven't dealt with graph paper since 1998.

I got some fabric the other day so I can make a test skirt and pay attention more closely to the fabric-use and construction.
