In reply to: Please help 's message, "cupcake skirt" on 06:36:32 07/13/11 Wed

For a skirt in the 12-18 month size I use about 6 yrds 7-8" length and for the 3-4 yr old I use at least 8yrds and 9-10" lengths. I use 3 layers of organza and 1-2 layers of ruffles depending on how full you want it. I sew my ruffles to the lining that I use underneath. One tip allow yourself and extra 1" for sewing to waistband and hemming. So for example if you need a 10" skirt cut the length of the circle 11".

Thanks for your reply. I know how to fold the material to cut out the circles, what I don't know is how to measure to cut out the waist. How many inches do I go down from my tip of material?...does that make sense???
