Traditional Dressmaking Techniques: Make Your Own Skirt

“During the course I taught you how to make a tailored half-wheel skirt, now it's your turn! Follow these basic steps to complete your project. I invite you not to just copy my example, but to experiment and invent something new. • To begin with, make sure you have everything you will need to make both the pattern and to make the skirt at hand.

• Take the measurements correctly.
• Make the pattern of both the skirt and the decorative panel verifying that they reflect the measurements taken previously.

• Finally, make an outfit with your new creation so that it enhances your figure.
Now share your project on the forum! Show everyone both the final result and the processing steps, documenting each step with an image and describing what you did with a brief explanation. As soon as possible, I will be happy to comment on your work. Watch colleagues' projects and encourage them by commenting on what they have shared - don't miss the precious opportunity to interact with the creative community. Thanks again for making this journey with me!”
