Introducing an EPIC list of free skirt sewing patterns.
I KNOW you all love free patterns – its the most searched for area of my site. And you LOVE the Pinterest Group Board where you all share your favorite free sewing patterns. And the Free Dress Patterns List was the biggest traffic generator on the site for weeks after it was published.
So, here you have it. The BIG List of free skirt sewing patterns for every type and style of skirt you can imagine. Over 100 at the time of publishing and growing as I find more great patterns to include.
Last updated on 30 April 2016.
Over 100 Free Skirt Sewing Patterns
It’s fitted to your body in the waist and hips because most of us feel like we don’t need to extra volume there. Then the skirt flares out to give you a great full hemline.

WHEN I CLICK FOR INSTRUCTIONS AND THE PATTERN FOR THE SCALLOPED SKIRT, I GET A BLANK WHITE SCREEN.
Hi Mary, many times sites and bloggers stop working there is not much we can do about it. We can only control our own content.
I’m looking for a skort pattern. For you youngsters, that’s a shorts pattern with a little panel on the front that makes it look like a skirt. I’m 64 and would like to look a little dressier sometimes, but still be comfortable.
I realize this is an older comment, but as one of the “younger” ones (45), I love skorts, but they are often made as a skirt with a pair of shorts out of either a stretch material or a thin cotton (like batiste) under it. The panel type that appears to be shorts from the back looks a little odd in my opinion.
Love all the choices of skirt patterns, any chance of some casual trouser patterns with/without front pleats, front waistband, with back elastic, and tapered leg and not too wide. It seems there is a lack of free trouser patterns around. Thank you
Out of all these great patterns I still can’t find one for a simple A line skirt with a yoke. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
You could always take a regular A-Line skirt and slash the pattern at hip level to add a yoke of your own. That should work for you.
Deby, I made the short Flirty skirt in nice cotton -rayon. Cute, Cute! But just not right. It has to be made of a stretch fabric. Fair warning gals.
Thanks a lot for all this wonderfull dress !! Have a good day !!
This is just fantastic. You have one of the best web sites. I can’t wait to make a few things and show you. I am having difficulty saving some tutorials like the basket weave basket pattern. I want to make it later but am afraid I won’t find it. Is there an easy way to save it to my computer. Thanks for all the patterns and teachings.
I have the same problem Dorothy, trying to save so much inspiration for later. That’s originally why I came to Pinterest, its really like a big visual bookmarking site. So now I can save things for later in my Pinterest folders and easily find them because there is a big picture to remind me. So if you want to save some ideas, that might be the easiest way. Plus, if your computer dies, its all still there as well.
Thank you for this. I am definitely pinning it!
What a great collection with so many skirt styles represented. Thanks!
Some of these are absolutely adorable, thanks so much for putting these together!
Hi, thank you so much for feature my skirt in this big great group of free skirt patterns.
I just want to tell you about this other elastic waisted skirt (with several pocket options) that I have made these two posts about (a year apart). The first one from 2012 is the pattern drafting and the one from 2013 is a full sewing tutorial including a in-seam single welt pocket.
Just wanted you to know 😉
Thanks again!
Thank Mie, I’ve pinned these both to the tutorials board on Pinterest because I think they are well suited there- they have such great directions on sewing pockets and that lovely gathered waist.
i love this who doesnt like free patterns
I love the All Your Life Skirt!
i like the skirt and then i have gf who sews and then i go to there and copy some down
I really like the coastal curtsy skirt. I have a pattern similar that I want to try to sew!
I like so many of these! I guess my favorites are the easy a-line and circle wrap skirts. Now I wish I knew how to sew….
I’ll be working on some sewing tutorials for beginners soon, and was thinking about a sewing from start to finish (like a sew along) on a basic lined skirt with zipper.
Wow, great collection! Thanks for linking up to Give Me The Goods Monday! Can’t wait to see what goods you bring next week! Jenna @ Rain on a Tin Roof
Thank you so much for collecting all of these patterns. I have been disappointed in the skirt selection I’ve seen in stores lately, and have been thinking about making my own. You have so many great ideas! Come check out my blog: http://www.clearwatercottage.blogspot.com
What timing – I was just thinking that it would be nice to make a skirt for myself this Spring since corduroy pants and jeans are getting a bit hot! Lovely collection and will be checking out your other groupings as well,
This is fantastic!
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog:)
This is perfect. Thank you so much! I pinned it and plan to be making a lot of skirts.
That is one awesome collection! I’m totally sending this to my sister via FB! Thanks for linking it up at Monday Funday!
I had no idea that there were so many free patterns out there. Thanks!
So many cute ones, it would be hard to choose! it’s nice that you’ve put it all together.
I’m visiting today from the Raising Imperfection hop.
