DIY: One Hour Skirt

 

Directions:

1. Measure waist, and add 8" - Cut rectangle that width (waist+8") by 22" 

2. Sew the sides together to create a "tube"

3. Fold down top first 1/2" and iron down, then fold down another 1 1/2" and iron - Sew down both the top and bottom of the waistband as seen in the picture above, but make sure to leave a gap to feed elastic through.

4. Feed the elastic through the waistband, I used a safety pin to help me push it through. As it is inserted it will create natural gathers - sew the ends of the elastic together.

5. Try on skirt and measure desired hem; fold under and sew.
