How to Sew a Ballet Tutu - pt. 1 series making a costume

Tutorial on how to sew a ballet tutu, it took me 1 hour to sew, but with cutting/ sewing it should take give or take 2-3 hours.
You need no sewing skills other then the ability to measure and cut, and sew a running stitch (the easiest stitch)
This is part 1 of a series for creating a ballet costume check out the other parts if you want to learn how to make a costume from scratch you can brag about ;P

There are good motifs and lace that can be used for ballet clothes in the site

Very well explained but how long do the strips need to be like the width is 1m but what is the length?

[@olyveyaa]

Length should be typical length of fabric, the longer I forget the measurements but I think it is 120 or 180 cm

[@equinae6048]

Yass thank you!! So exited to try this out and see how you make the rest of the costume!!

[@evaredwitz4903]

Thank you so much for the tutorial!!! But one thing I didn’t understand well is: all three tutu pieces of the beginning have a width of 1 meter but how long are they?

[@olyveyaa]

As long as the width of the fabric when you buy it preferably I believe the longest is 180cm

[@lexisotelo8010]

@@olyveyaa Are you absolutely sure the lengths you used on your tutu are only 180 cm long? That is about 70 inches and 70 inches gathered down doesn't seen wide enough to produce the fullness of gathers on your tutu. Most ballet tutus will use multiple yards per layer gathered down on each row.

[@CraftsForGirls]

I tried to sew this tutu with the width of 1,35 m but I failed because it didn’t produce the fullness of gathers. This time I bought fabric in width of 3 m and it gathered really nicely.

Could you also sew the tulle onto the underwear with a Sewing machine or does that Not Work ?

[@andraglg13]

Can i just use a wide elastic for the waistband instead of underwear?

[@olyveyaa]

You can but the support of the underwear works better in holding up the tulle

[@andraglg13]

Can i just lay it flat upside down instead of hanging it upside down

[@andraglg13]

Can i add a hoop in it if it doesn't stand up like that

[@olyveyaa]

Why not

[@andraglg13]

@@olyveyaa do you have any type you'd recommend?

[@Hknasw]
