Summer of Skirts - Anthropologie Ruffled Skirt Tutorial Here it finally is - the anthropologie inspired skirt tutorial! There are two ways to do this. One is to make the whole skirt yourself using a knit fabric, and the other is to take an existing pencil or slim a-line skirt you already have and add the ruffles to it. What you need: - About a yard of knit fabric, depending on your size (see step 1 for details). - Two contrasting fabrics, about 1/4 to 1/8 each. I made this skirt have a half lining to it because the knit was so thin. Step 1: Measure around the widest part of your hips. I'm sorry I didn't get pictures of this part. Step 2: Mark where your length measurement of the skirt ends (so you should have a mark between the extra lining fabric you added and the actual length you want your skirt to be). Step 3: You might want to curve the top of the skirt, depending on where you want your skirt to sit. Step 5: Cut a strip of contrasting fabric #2 so that it is the same length as the skirt width (all around).

Featherty Sews: Making a Swimsuit This is the first post in at least a two-part series on how to make a swimsuit. Make no mistake - I am no expert! But I recently finished making my first tankini and was remarkably surprised at how easy it was and how few resources there are out there in blogoland on how to make one. So here you go. First, let me say that making a swimsuit is cheap-ER than buying ready-to-wear, but isn't exactly dirt cheap. You do NOT need a serger to make a swimsuit! I'll be making Kwik-Sew 3779, View B (slightly modified) which looks remarkably similar to this Miraclesuit, doesn't it? SuppliesYou'll need a few specialized things to make a swimsuit. First, nylon lycra fabric. You'll also need swimsuit lining. Another option for swimsuit lining is the more expensive Powerknit, also called Powermesh or girdle fabric (pictured below). Bulky Nylon thread. Stretch or ball-point needles. Clear elastic or swimsuit elastic for the leg and neck openings. OK, I think you're ready to get started! So, first thing?

Tutorial: Wrapping up a Wrap Dress – blithe stitches As promised, here is a tutorial on how to make your very own wrap dress. This is the final dress but you can make it your own depending on your fabric choice and sleeves/cut/length preferences. Project: The Wrap Dress Materials: 2 metres 60″ width fabric ( I recommend using jersey knits or other stretchy fabric with good drape)matching thread Skills: Intermediate Bodice draftingSleeves drafting and construction Construction: Step 1. If you don’t have a basic bodice sloper yet, you should really consider making one. I made a few bodice blocks when I started sewing but for this project, I used my latest version drafted using Dennic Chunman Lo’s Pattern Cutting. Measure a slightly curved diagonal line from the point where neck and shoulder meet to side of the waist (left or right, depending on where you want the knot closure to sit). Step 2. With bias-cut designs, it is important to find the true bias grain when cutting the fabric (see diagram below). Open up your skirt cone and cut in half.
