Mia Knit Maxi Skirt by Sinclair Patterns

For a smart, fitted maxi skirt, check out the Quebrada Skirt. It’s a gored skirt with 5 panels in the front and 6 in the back designed for medium-weight woven fabric. The shape is so flattering!

For a simple yet pretty design, the Leighton Maxi skirt is a pull on style with a drop waist yoke. The fabric is gathered below the yoke, for a boho style.
Allegro Skirt by Love Notions
The Allegro woven skirt is perfect for everyday wear, with a pull-on style and pockets! The Allegro pattern doesn’t just include the skirt. There’s also shorts and pants included.
Balboa Skirt by Itch to Stitch
Balboa is a simple knit skirt design with an elastic waist. There is an option for a bias cut skirt (with a center seam), along with the basic side seam version. The pattern includes lots of other shorter skirt styles too.
Stella Slit Skirt by Petite Stitchery
For something a bit more bodycon, there’s the Stella Slit Skirt, with two slit lengths. Choose your fabric for a slinky date night dress or go for a more casual, beachy look.
Sunshine Swirl Skirt by Candy Castle Patterns
Everyone wants a skirt that twirls, right? The Sunshine Swirl Skirt is a light, boho-style skirt that makes every spin fun. So many fun ways you could play with fabric combinations to make this skirt your own to brighten your wardrobe and make you happy.
Layered Ruffle Skirt by Socialite Patterns
If you prefer gathers to flounces, here is the Layered Ruffle Skirt. Such a gorgeous, feminine design, and I’m a big fan of a flat-front, elastic back design.
Wrap Skirt by Ellie & Mac
This wrap skirt might be slightly shorter than a true maxi skirt (but you can always adjust the pattern to suit). The tiered wrap style looks like it’s perfect for swooshing and dancing!
Women’s Tiered Skort by Peek-a-Boo Pattern Shop
So technically it’s a skort and not a skirt, but I’m sure you could leave the shorts off! The tiered skort is perfect for flowy everyday wear, and has options for knit and woven fabric.
There really is a women’s maxi skirt sewing pattern for every occasion! Pick your pattern and find the perfect fabric for some gorgeous full-length skirt style!
