• Step 1

  First I measured around the fullest part of my hips, you need twice this measurement for the width of the fabric :)
  Then the length is up to you, but take around 10cm off of the length you want to make, because the hem will take up that much :)

• Step 2

  To make the hem, make a strip of fabric as long as your other piece (hip measurement x2) by 20cm.
  Fold the edges over and press them.
  Then, if you fold is piece over long-ways it'll make the ideal hem for the bottom of your skirt.

• Step 3

  Sew this hem to the bottom of the long fabric.

• Step 4

  Fold the top of your "skirt" over and sew down the length, creating a tube at the top. Make sure the rough side is on the inside.

• Step 5

  Using a safety pin, (pinned to the end of the elastic),
  pull the elastic through the skirt and once you get to the other end, tie it in a knot top make a loop.

• Step 6

  With the skirt inside out (rough sides together), sew down the open edge.

• Step 7

  Turn it out the right way around, and voila, your own simple skirt! :D
