TieR sKirT


I wanted to post a super easy tier skirt for sew Saturday.  I am sure there are different ways to make one, but here's how I did it.  I cut out my fabric by measuring my daughter's waist and adding about an inch and a half for seem allowance and comfort.  I then made each tier 2 inches longer(you can make it even longer for a more gathered look).  I gathered the longer tier to match the shorter one.  I put right sides together and sewed.  I just did the same for the rest of it.  The bottom tier I folded the fabric in half and than gathered it and sew it together which made a more ribbon look on the last tier and I didn't have to do a hem which I hate for some reason.  Sorry I don't have pictures of the process.  Super Easy. Super cute.  I used about 1/4 yard of 3 different fabrics for a size 5 skirt. Looks super cute on.
