Stunning!~ You could put this underneath one of your custom skirts too, and make it super full! How many yards of tulle did you need?
I would love to do it in Halloween colors, black and purple and orange. Trying to think ahead!![]()
Oh gosh if it only takes ten minutes, I could make a red white and blue one!!!
Can you share how you did this, or is it copy righted?

I know this wasn't directed to me; but if you look closely at the waistband, you can see how it is done. Determine how large the waist is and cut a length of elastic that length, plus 1 inch. Bring the ends of your elastic together, overlapping that inch, and sew ends together. Your elastic/waistband is now the proper size. Then you decide how long the skirt/tutu needs to be and double that measurement and again add 1 inch. Then simply cut your tulle to that length. Now I can't see how wide each strip is, but I'm guessing 6 - 8 inches. Then, fold each strip in half lengthwise and tie it to the elastic band. Don't tie like you would a bow though. Fold the tulle in half and put the loop part just below the waist. Then pull the ends down through the loop. I hope that makes sense. Just keep doing this until you're done. To make it fuller, just bunch the tulle closer together.
Hope this helps.
