DIY Skirt with Fluffy Back

Instructions

   SKIRT

   I had a huge fabric, 150-70 cm maybe. I measured it, I wanted to keep the length of the skirt as 50 cm, I used the 20 cm left in order to hem the bottom and put the elastic band. I used almost all the fabric. I only left some piece from the long side in order to make the bow.

   First I hem the bottom of the skirt.

   Then I folded the fabric and sewed the short sides to eachother.

   I measured the top of the skirt according to the elastic I had. I used the widest I could find.
4. 4
   

   I sewed the top according to the elastic band. I left 5 cm in order to put the elastic band.

   I measured the elastic band according to my waist, I put the elastic band in with the help of a safety pin, I sewed it.

   I closed the part that I left for elastic band.

   BOW

   I took a rectangle piece from the rest of the fabric. I didnt measure but it was something like 30-10cm, maybe a little bit bigger, depends on the skirt, depends on what you like.

   First I sewed the long sides, I turn it inside out and I sewed the short sides to eachother.

   I have found the middle point and sewed it in order to make the bow. I kept the stiches behind and in the middle.
7. 7
   

   I made a a small piece for the middle of the bow.

   I didn't measure it again. I followed the same steps of the bow, I only sewed the short sides first, then the long sides :)

   I put the bow into the new small piece. I used a safety pin because the hole was very small :)I hid the stiches on the backside of the bow.

   BACK

   I gathered all the fabric on the back of the skirt. In order to keep the fabric there, I attached it with handsewing. I used one or two tiches for bot side of gathered fabric, otherwise I wouldn't be able to use the elastic band :)

   Finally, I attached the bow on the back.

   The skirt is ready!
   Enjoy!
