If you're looking for a fabulous summer garment that is quick to make and easy to wear then, look no further than our ingenious circle skirt. This feminine number, designed exclusively for Sew by Vicky Taylor, is worked from two basic fabric discs with a clever intersection that creates a wonderfully full wrap skirt - perfect for those balmy summer days!
Easy Make Circle Skirt
Fold the main fabric into quarters, with right side facing up. With tailor’s chalk mark the folded corner point – when this is opened out it will indicate the centre of the fabric. Smooth the netting fabric on the floor or other flat surface and unfold the main fabric, laying it pattern side up on top of the netting. Pin the two pieces together securely.
Take the string and tie one end to tailor’s chalk or dressmaker’s pencil. Pin the free end of string to the marked centre point on the fabric, and holding the string taut towards the outer edge begin drawing in a smooth arc to create a circle. Leave the string pinned in place, untie the chalk and re-tie to the string 15cm from the pin. Draw a second, smaller circle onto the fabric.
