Some Ruffling. . .

Part of the Halloween costumes included pettiskirts--
nylon chiffon pettiskirts. 


Five of them.



Which means cutting, sewing and ruffling
300 yards of ruffles, and 150 yards of tiers.




But it was really fun, albeit slightly tedious. 
 
 
 
And the end results. . .
priceless!
 
 
Fabulous tutorial located here on Make It and Love It.
Chiffon purchased from afc-express.

    There is NO way I would have that kind of patience, not when it comes to ruffles. But, wow, those are cute!

    WOW! They are beautiful. I admire your patience. I am in the middle of my first petti project for my DD's 4th b-day soon. This might very well be the last time I try this too. LOL. Its not hard but it is incredibly time consuming. Beautiful work!!!
