EDIT-—t's better if this fabric has no stretch than a fabric with too much. So a normal woven cotton would work, but not a cotton knit or jersey.)The best way to make sure you have enough fabric is to make your
paper pattern first and take it to the fabric shop. Or, make your paper pattern and measure it out first, if you are ordering fabric online.
Don't forget to get extra fabric for shrinkage.
For a rough guide, figure about 2 1/2 yards for an XL and 2 yards for a XS, depending on the fabric width and your skirt length. This is a generous estimate.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2008/07/5-minute-skirt.html">-A big ol' piece of paper to make your pattern. I love <A href="http://www.nearseanaturals.com/item.php?id=2117" linkindex="26" set="yes">Swedish tracing paper</A>, but you can use whatever is big enough. In a pinch, you can also use muslin or another piece of fabric if you have some lying around.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2008/07/5-minute-skirt.html">-FOE (fold over elastic) you need this for the waistband, so get at least your waist circumference. </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2008/07/5-minute-skirt.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/angrychicken.typepad.com/img/D9C9F46A-6720-40DA-8715-5A7FB34C7A63" alt="Skirt" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2008/07/5-minute-skirt.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/angrychicken.typepad.com/img/52DA61B8-5E8E-49F6-BC9D-3E47039B9C76" alt="Img_7716" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2008/07/5-minute-skirt.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/angrychicken.typepad.com/img/FF941177-17AC-4734-AA75-C8530DD734F9" alt="Img_7718" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/5D88C17C-672E-4F6D-A1EE-5631701BFFCE/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
