Blue Lace Skirt

Shortly after I learned how to sew, my sister-in-law handed me a stack of blue fabric and asked me to turn it into something for their daughter. The fabric held a special meaning because it was used in their wedding. So, I decided to turn it into a skirt.

I wanted the skirt to have fullness so I purchased a soft tulle fabric to add layers inside the skirt. I didn’t want the tulle to irritate her waist so I made a short panel out of the blue fabric to attach the tulle to. This way, all of the fabric gathered at her waist would be the silky, smooth fabric.

I added a lace trim to finish the hem of the skirt.

The two layers were sewed together before the gathered tulle was attached to the short panel.

Add an elastic waistband and voila!
