DIY satin skirt for a girl: step-by-step instructions

Satin skirt for girls
This model is made according to the pattern of the sun.It is better to use bright colors so that the transition is noticeable.

To work you will need:

  • satin ribbon of different colors;
  • sewing machine;
  • multi-colored threads;
  • elastic thread;
  • elastic band for the belt (width 2 cm).

Stages:

  1. Measurements. We measured the model's waist circumference and multiplied this figure by 2. This will be the first circle for the skirt. The second size is the length of the product. Measure from the waist to the required length (this model is usually knee-length), adding an allowance for the elastic (3 cm).
  2. Pattern. Draw a circle around the circumference of your model. Next, draw a radius to the required length and draw a circle again. Now the pattern is ready. Afterwards, you can lay out the ribbons along the pattern and use a running stitch to connect them together.
  3. Sewing. It is more convenient to start from the center to the periphery. For the very central part, it is better to take a wider satin ribbon and then connect it with running stitches until the required length of the product is obtained. Moreover, each new ribbon will be slightly longer than the previous one, and therefore an elastic thread is so necessary.

Important! Insert an elastic thread instead of the lower thread on the machine. The top one should be normal. But it’s worth loosening it a little right in the iron connector for the thread, half a turn (a screwdriver will help to do this).

Sew the circles together using elastic thread.

The last thing to insert into the skirt is an elastic band and first sew a pocket for it. The tape does not require stitching and this is a huge plus for those who do not have such a machine in their home.

This is how you can easily and simply make a beautiful skirt. It is not necessary to use different colors of satin ribbon. You can use two or three colors. This will already be the author's model.
