Make your skort free sewing pattern unique by customizing it. Step 13: Admire your new skort!! How can you Customize your Skort? This is a good time to tuck in a tag or loop of ribbon to help your little one know which side is the back □ Step 12: Topstitch the gap in the waistband shut. Step 11: Thread your elastic (I used 1″ no-roll) through the casing. Tuck the raw edge in 1/4″ and topstitch in place along the bottom edge leaving a 1″ gap in back for the elastic. Step 10: Bring the waistband up and then back down inside the skort so it’s covering the seam allowance. Line up the waistband seam with the skirt seam and sew together. Step 9: With RST slide the waistband over the skort. Make sure the center back seam (the side with the higher rise) of the shorts is aligned with your skirt seam. Step 8: Slide the shorts inside the skirt and baste the top edges together. Step 7: Gather the top edge of the skirt to match the width of the waistband. I used the edge with the blue dots as my hem. Step 6: Fold the bottom edge up 1/4″ and then another 1/2″ towards the wrong side and press flat. I ended up using a 3/4″ seam allowance for this step which resulted in the print lining up perfectly in back so pay attention to your dots and adjust your seam allowance accordingly □ Press this seam open. Step 5: With RST sew the skirt piece together along the selvage edges. Step 4: With RST sew the short ends of the waistband together. If you are using a woven you’ll want to finish the top edge by turning it under 1/4″ or finishing with a serger so it doesn’t fray. If you are using knits you’ll want to hem with a zig-zag stitch or double needle so the seams will have some stretch. Step 3: Fold the bottom edge of the shorts up 1/2″ and hem. Step 2: With RST sew the front and back together along the inseam. With right sides together (RST) sew the left and right leg together along the front and back rise. Let’s make a skort! All of my supplies were generously provided by The Ribbon Retreat Skort Sewing Instructions So, let's gather our supplies and get started! And if you're feeling creative, we've also got some tips on how you can customize the skort to make it unique for your little one. In this post, we will guide you through the necessary materials and tools required, as well as provide detailed steps to create the skort. The shorts and waistband can be made from a knit or woven. If you’re using another print you’ll need 1/3 yard. You can use any fabric you like the panel gives it a fun pieced look. You only need half so if you have 2 little girls to sew for you’ll be all set with just one panel □ Or if you like extra full skirts you could use the entire panel. The secret to this super easy skort is in the fabric. Use a 1/2″ seam allowance unless otherwise noted. On your pattern piece you’ll also find the dimensions for the skirt and waistband and a recommended elastic length. If you just want to make a skirt you can just leave the shorts portion out. Tape it together along the dashed lines as shown in the diagram. If you are using knit for the shorts you may want to go down one size for the shorts for a bit slimmer fit. The pattern will print out on 3 pages. The pattern is available for sizes 2t-4t as that’s what works best with the fabric panel. ![]() You can also get the code by signing up for our Facebook Grou p and looking in the group announcements in the featured post.
