Have you ever wanted to have the perfect Spring skirt – one that fits your own particular curves – without having to know a lot about making (and following) a pattern? This project doesn’t include a lot of confusing sewing terms, and the finished product flatters your form like a skirt with a zipper, but is much more forgiving if you gain or lose a few pounds here and there.
REQUIRED SKILLS
If you can do a little simple math, and you have even a small amount of sewing machine experience (can you sew a straight line?), you can make this custom-fit skirt.
TOOLS AND MATERIALS
1½ to 2 yards of light-to-medium weight fabric (quilting cottons are ideal)
tape measure
yard stick
roll of tracing paper or newsprint paper
washout cloth marker
scissors
sewing machine
thread to coordinate with fabric
iron
pins
TOPICS COVERED
More than just a simple sewing pattern, this ebook is like a mini-class. Each topic includes step-by-step instructions and photos where appropriate.
You will learn:
How to use your measurements to draft a custom-fit skirt pattern
How to cut the fabric and sew it into a 3-panel wrap skirt
How to make a waistband and ties
How to sew a hem
