5- The basic skirt!

Of course from the beginning my girls wanted dresses, and skirts, and anything I could do for them so I tried as my first clothing project this basic skirt.

This tutorial is everywhere, and you don't need a pattern, only your hip measurements, and your waist, and the length  you want the skirt to be.
I followed the tutorial from this web site Ruffles and stuff, as always these web sites are teaching me so many things! And it is very exciting!

Here are the pictures of my happy girls with they're skirt:

 For the oldest she wanted  a bow in the bottom of the skirt, so that's what I did. And the hemming of her's I did a little twist, I folded and hemmed three times, because I had done to long for her at first, and it was actually a nice touch to the skirt! Sometimes the wrong thing happen for the best results!

And the little one wanted a bow for her hair, so I just sewed one and attached to an alligator clip. Her's was right on her size, so I just hemmed normally!

Tha'ts it for the basic skirt, and you can do so many variations colors, and different fabric o those, and they are very easy to make!
