Great pattern. Easy to make. Fits nicely and really comfortable to wear. Made it out of a cotton sateen.

A very simple pattern only complicated by my nerves of sewing with beautiful silk, and the pressure to make it for my daughter’s Year 12 formal (to be worn with a 1990’s vintage corset). I agree with others here about cutting on the bias with only a quarter of the pattern. I followed advice and mirrored the pattern with extra paper, so I could lay each whole side down and mark it out., and make sure it was on the cross. At first I tried flipping the pattern, but the silk made everything very slippery, and I wasn’t confident enough to make a cut! In the end it turned out fine but I would do French seams next time. Nice to have a simple pattern that can be easily upgraded into something special.

Love this pattern, it was such an easy make. I think I’ll make the pattern as one piece as others have done as one, instead of flipping it. Definitely making more in viscose rayon and linen for the summer.

I made the Genoa Skirt in a size 12 but it came up very big so did large seam allowance, it is very easy to take in, a very easy make and looks quite effective.
I had not made a bias cut skirt for myself before as I thought it would not suit me, but saw it on others and decided it may be ok. It actually looks great, made in a light weight linen a Nerida Hansen Miss Moresby; Farm and Stars Print, beautiful fabric, very pleased with the pattern. I will make this skirt again.

Super easy and quick to sew, i did what someone else suggested and made a full pattern piece. It was much easier to sort out my placement on the fabric.
Made mine put of a soft linen so it has a lovely drape, already have a second one cut out in a cotton.

I made the Genoa skirt in size 16 from midweight linen purchased from purelinenenvy.ca in “Driftwood”. Very easy and quick to sew, but came out much too large. I’m a size 20 and it fit me. I will make another for my daughter but size down to a 12.
It would have saved a great deal of work if the pattern piece was a full front/back piece instead of just a half. Laying out on the bias can be tricky enough but working with only half a piece that had to be flipped was ridiculous. One does not cut out on the fold on the bias as it causes distortion of the fabric. I will be making a full pattern piece for myself for future projects using Genoa.
The cut of the skirt is very attractive and falls beautifully in the linen. I shortened it to be a few inches below the knee and it’s cool and breezy in the heat, and quite stylish.

Easiest skirt I’ve ever made! A little on the larger size so should have made the 12. Looks very nice.
