How to sew a skirt for a girl with her own hands?

If you have a daughter, you must have heard her request to buy a new skirt more than once. Is there free time and the desire to please the child? Then try to fill up the wardrobe of your daughter with skirts, stitched yourself. In this master class you will learn how to sew yourself beautiful skirts for a girl, using the same simple pattern. With this task you can do it even if you did not sew the skirt yourself before. Another advantage of the proposed models is that you do not have to build complex patterns on paper.

Skirt with contrasting insert

To sew it you will need two cuts of fabric of different colors, combining with each other, scissors, an elastic band and a sewing machine.

  1. To sew the skirt for a girl, determine the size of the product. To do this, measure the length from the waist to the knee (higher or lower - if desired). Then fold the main cut twice and cut out the rectangle of the appropriate length, in which the width is equal to the two waist girths. After that, cut a strip about 30 centimeters wide from the second cut of fabric, bend it in half.
  2. Attach this strip to the bottom section of a larger piece, make sure the lengths are the same, and stitch.
  3. On the wrong side, treat the seam with an overlock or zigzag. In the upper part of the product make a lapel (3-4 centimeters), iron it well, stitch it, leaving a few centimeters unclosed to put the elastic band in the belt.
  4. Put the elastic band in the waistband with a pin, sew its edges and secure the previously unplugged hole. It remains at the junction between two types of fabric to make a stitch (you can use a thread of contrasting color), and a charming summer skirt for the baby is ready!

Skirt with frills

  1. The pattern of the main part of this skirt is done in a similar way, but the strip of contrasting color should be doubled. Then fold the fabric in half, stitch and sew the ends of the strip to make a large circle. From above, sweep the strip and lightly pull the thread, reducing the length of the strip by half. The resulting frill is sewn to the wrong side of the hem of the skirt, treating the seam overlock.
  2. On the front side on the border of two types of fabric make a line, and a bright skirt is ready to fill the wardrobe of the young fashionista.

Skirt with belt

  1. In this model there are two bright accents - a frill and belt, so we recommend to sew such a skirt from a fabric of the same color, so that the product does not look too colorful. So, we cut out the main detail, the skirt of the skirt, using the description in the first photo. Then we cut out a strip from which we will sew a frill. Its length should be twice as large as the width of the main blade. It remains to cut the belt, determined by its width.
  2. Sewing skirts should start with the manufacture of the belt. To do this, bend the strip of fabric twice with the front side inward, cut the ends at an angle and stitch.
  3. Top the top edge of the base fabric to the width of the belt, and attach the edges of the turned to the front side and the ironed belt to the side cuts. Do not forget to leave a few centimeters unguarded to insert the rubber band.
  4. From the wrong side, fasten the parts with pins. Your product should look like this:
  5. Insert into the hole left on the top of the skirt by a non-sewn rubber band. Then turn the product to the front side, make a decorative stitch on the joint of the main fabric and frill and iron the skirt. Now in your girl's wardrobe there was a bright and fashionable new thing made by your hands.

With your own hands, you can sew a pretty dress for a girl or a summer sarafan .
