How Do You Make A Tiered Skirt From Old Skirts?
Making a tiered skirt from old skirts is not only a fun sewing project, but also a wonderful way to recycle clothing. Any old skirts can be used to make the new skirt. They could belong to you or your friends or come from a thrift store or yard sale. Tiered skirts can be made in any size from infant to plus sizes. Cut a strip of cloth from each skirt. The strip of fabric for the top of the skirt, called the casing, should be 6 inches wide, with a length of your hip measurement plus 2 1/2 inches. Measure and cut the next five strips of fabric five inches wide and the lengths as follows: your hip measurement plus 4 inches for the second strip, hip measurement plus 5 1/2 inches for the third strip, hip measurement plus 10 inches for the fourth strip, hip measurement plus 16 inches for the fifth strip, and hip measurement plus 25 inches for the sixth strip. Attach several pieces of material from the same skirt together, if needed, to make the required length strip of material. Form six tub
