    Sobre

    Make your own custom elastic-waist a-line skirt pattern using this fully-illustrated book as your guide! REQUIRED SKILLS The project is suitable for beginners. If you can sew a straight line and do a little basic math, then you can do this! TOOLS AND MATERIALS 1 1/2 yards quilting cotton large sheet (or roll) of tracing paper or newsprint paper yard stick tape measure (optional) washout cloth marker scissors sewing machine thread to coordinate with the sheet iron 1/2-inch or 1/4-inch elastic to fit comfortably around your waist 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 skirt shape How to sew a hem How to make an elastic casing Plus: How to adjust the pattern for a closer fit, or a less-pronounced ?A? shape. How to determine the proper length of elastic Variations -- Whenever I get my hands on a few yards of a pretty cotton print, I make a skirt. My go-to skirt pattern is one that I drafted myself, using my own measurements as a starting point. Using this pattern always results in an elastic-waist A-line skirt, made to fit my own particular curves. After you have completed the simple steps in this book, you will have a custom-made pattern and a skirt sewn from it that fits *your* own particular curves. The paper pattern can be used over and over again to make as many skirts as your fabric stash allows. The simplicity of the Easy A-Line Skirt makes it easy enough for a beginner, as well as the perfect blank canvas. Let an exciting fabric shine on its own as I?ve done here, or dip into your creative reserves and come up with ways to embellish a more subdued fabric with embroidery, buttons, ribbons, and trims.
