Sew a quick and easy A-line skirt with the Ava Skirt sewing pattern!

The Ava Skirt is a versatile A-line skirt with two hem length options: mini or just below the knee. She’s an everyday classic that’ll go with everything and work throughout the seasons – win-win!

Ava features darts at the front and back for shaping, a regular centre back zip, narrow waistband and optional in-seam pockets! Made up of only four pieces, Ava is simple to sew and a perfect starting point for beginner dressmakers, whereas more experienced sewists will enjoy a quick, satisfying project.

Sewing Level

The Ava Skirt is aimed at Absolute Beginners.

Fabric Suggestions

For the Ava Skirt we recommend medium to heavy weight woven fabrics with some structure, such as denim, cotton poplin, cotton canvas, brocade, viscose linen and wools. For the optional in-seam pockets, we recommend a finer fabric such as cotton lawn.

The Ava Skirt PDF sewing pattern is either 24 A4/US letter pages or 2 A0 pages (sizes 6-20) or 27 A4/US letter pages or 2 A0 pages (sizes 18-30).

What is a PDF pattern?

A PDF pattern is a downloadable pattern that you print yourself at home on A4 or US letter paper.

Choose to add on A0 printing and we will print the pattern on our A0 printers and post it to you so all you need to access digitally is the instruction booklet.

If you're using the A4 or US letter options, simply download, print at home, tape together and let the sewing begin! When you print the pattern, print at 100% (you might have to uncheck the scale box). Print page 1 first, the square should measure 10cm x 10cm.

Is this sewing pattern layered?

Yes! This pattern is layered so you can print off just the size(s) that you need. Find out more about layering here.

Like all our patterns, the sizes are nested to make it easier to grade between the sizes, depending on your measurements.
