Ladies Skirt
Tools and Materials needed:
1½ meter cloth
thread
sewing machine
cutting tool
measuring tools
pencil
Procedure:
Step 1Take a measurement of the person for whom you are making the skirt. Essentially, you will require waist and length measurements. Such skirts look best long, when knee-length or longer, so take a measurement accordingly.
Step 2Pick the fabric of your choice from your favorite store and cut it as per the measurement, This step can be as slow as you need. The cutting has to be done while keeping some buffer fabric for the sewing. So make sure you make no mistakes there.
Step 3Now sew the skirt. Try keeping a nice pattern at the bottom. You could try an arc or a downward facing triangle. You can try experimenting, but try not to go overboard. Leave the top 3 inches on one side unstitched. You can put a button or Velcro seal at this part. This is to aid the wearing comfort.
Step 4Now we start of with making this skirt a "poodle skirt". Take a print out of a poodle on an iron-on-paper.
Step 5Place the paper face down on the skirt and iron on it. This will leave the poodle's image on the skirt. Be careful at this step. Make sure you place the picture in the right place, no mistakes allowed here.
Step 6You can add a few embellishments like sparkle or straps or laces to make the skirt look cuter. The beauty of making your own skirt is that you can make just the way you like it!
