Princess Dreams can be fully acted out with these delicate skirts in tulle and organza. Tulle and organza are available on 50cm wide rolls. Depending on the child's height and size a good suggestion is to measure the child's waist and multiply the fabric length by two. So if the child is 55cm around the waist, the length of a layer of tulle should be approx. 110cm in order to get a suitable gathering effect. Before sewing tulle and organza onto a wide elastic cord, it's far easier to sew a tack seam in the tulle where the gathering is pulled - before the sewing machine takes over. You can make several layers which can be cut into lengths or strips for decoration etc. To make it really simple, sequins, sequin ribbons, organza sequins have been stapled on with small staples.
