Supplies for the Sew a Midi Skirt Tutorial

  • FABRIC: To work out your fabric requirement. Take your ideal skirt length and add 5″ to calculate the length of your fabric required Take your hip measurement, at the widest part, and add 1″ (for seam allowance) to calculate the minimum width you need ( Consider shrinkage when looking for jerseys and prewash before you begin! We recommend using a cotton or modal knit fabric with at least a 5% elastane content )
  • Polyester sewing thread.
  • Ballpoint, stretch or jersey machine needle.
  • 1″ wide elastic – enough to wrap around your waist with an overlap ( Any width between 3/4″ – 1 1/2″ will be fine if you have it in your stash! )
