The main types of clothing are described in the table:

Variety of skirt Description

Very light and airy. Suitable for both little girls and adults

Advice! You can even wear a tulle skirt every day, combining it with simple plain light sweaters and T-shirts.

A hoop made of flowers or a cute hair clip will be a successful and harmonious addition.

For a little fashionista, mummies want to create the image of a princess. But if the needlewoman has never even held a thread with a needle in her hands, you can simply use scissors. You don't need to sew anything!

Just gather all the materials you need to create the skirt:

  • Fatin.
  • Rubber.
  • Scissors.

Important! Calculate the length of the stripes for the girl's height and the estimated length of the skirt.

You can use ready-made ribbons rather than whole webs of fabric to cut fewer strips. It is profitable to buy a net in a skein 5-10 cm wide. Such materials can be purchased at fabric stores.

You also need a chair to make a tutu. Measure the circumference of your daughter's hips, remember that the elastic should be tight, but not press on the child. Tie or sew the finished strip.

Advice! It is better to tie both ends of the elastic with a small knot so that you can adjust the size. This trick will help make the skirt grow.

Now pull the ready-made elastic band over the back of the chair. Prepare the following materials - mesh strips.

Tulle needs to be cut into small but even pieces about 1 meter long and 10 cm wide. For a short skirt, 60-70 cm is enough for a little one-year-old baby.

You will need a lot of strips - from 40 pieces. The quantity depends on the splendor of the product and the age of the girl. You can create interesting options with alternating stripes different lengths and flowers.

When all the materials are prepared, follow the step-by-step instructions:

  • Tie a strip with a stretched elastic. You do not need to make a tight knot, evenly distribute the tulle tails.
  • Tie the next strip next to it. There should be no gaps between each, the mesh should completely cover the elastic.

Tie the stripes until the creative field runs out. When the elastic is not visible, take off the finished skirt and try on the little princess.

Such a thing would be ideal for a photo shoot or a performance in kindergarten.

Not to buy excess material and calculate each strip, use the tips:

  • For children under one year old, the length of the skirt will be only 20 cm. In the store you can buy only 2.5-3 meters of standard meter width fabric.
  • For girls from 3 to 5 years old, the minimum length of a tutu is 30 cm. It will take about 3-4 meters of tulle to make.
  • To create a stage image for an adult girl, the stripes should be longer, thicker and thicker layers. It will be needed to make 100 strips of fabric. The minimum material is 6-7 meters.

But sometimes skeptical women stand behind the counter of the store, so you have to make the calculation yourself and approximately.

Master class: sewing a lush multi-tiered tutu

To create a tiered skirt, you need to have basic knowledge of cutting and sewing. If the house has a sewing machine, then it will take no more than an hour or two to make such a model.

For a master class of a multi-tiered pack you will need:

  • Pattern sun.
  • Textile.
  • Lining material.
  • Sewing accessories.

Advice! The more layers a model has, the more fabric is needed for sewing.

Now all measurements need to be made. If the skirt is with an elastic band, then the obtained figure of the waist circumference should be reduced by 2-3 cm.

Start sewing the lining first, it is better to use satin or cotton to match the tulle for the bottom layer.

Use an old ballet skirt as a lining so you don't waste time making the bottom layer:

  1. Make the first layer according to the pattern. For an inexperienced seamstress, it is best to practice on an old fabric first. Keep in mind that there will be fold lines 2-3 cm above and below.
  2. Create suns by reference. The layers will all be the same size, experiment with opulence in taste and color.
  3. Now all the parts need to be connected. The mesh does not need overcasting, but remember to hem the hem while lining.
  4. Sew each layer in turn on the petticoat. You can also use another method - fasten all layers with a basting stitch and go on a typewriter around the edges.

    But in this case, the quality of the technique must be high in order to penetrate such a thickness.

Trim the finished product with scissors from below. The length of the tulle part can be made several cm longer so that the bottom layer is not visible. Be a beautiful princess at any age.
