How to
Now, let's dive into the step-by-step instructions on how you can create your own micro mini circle skirt:
Step 1: Prepare the Pattern
First things first, print out the pattern pieces and tape them together per the included instructions. You should have 1 large circle skirt piece and 1 waistband piece.
Step 2: Cut Out the Pattern Pieces
Using your favourite fabric, cut out the circle skirt piece and waistband piece per the pattern instructions.
Step 3: Sew the Waistband
Fold the waistband in half lengthwise, right sides together, and sew the short ends together. Press the seam allowance open.
Next, sew the invisible zipper to the waistband following the manufacturer's instructions.
Finally, attach the hook and eye closure to the end of the waistband.
Step 4: Prepare the Skirt
Using a long stitch length, sew a line of basting stitches around the top of your circle skirt piece. Pull the thread to gather the material until it fits the waistband
Pin the waistband to the circle skirt piece right sides together and sew it on while pulling slightly on the fabric to match the circumference of the waistband.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
Finish hemming the skirt bottom to your desired length and remove any remaining basting stitches.
