double slit maxi

I found an amazing maxi skirt with a double slit, but it was nearly $70 and I do not have that kind of money to spend on a skirt.

I decided to make one myself :)

  3. I am stumped! I cannot figure out how to get the split overlaps right on this or how you do the gathers. Your skirt is super cute. Please post instructions.

    1. Thank you for your comment! I have posted some instructions on this skirt. The skirt is made of two panels the overlap in the front. The back panel wraps around the back to the front and stops at each hip bone. The front panel is wide enough to cover the front so the back seams can overlap and make the slit. The gathering is done by using a loose size thread on the sewing machine, I used size 4. Then you pull one side which makes the gather. I hope I can help you finish yours! Please ask me any questions. I will also post a video so you can see.

    1. Thank you for your comment! I have started posting instructions and I will be posting a video. What seems to be the problem with the seams? When I cut my material I left a little to fold over and finish off the edges. LEt me know if you have any questions.
