What’s included
  • Step-by-step illustrated sewing instructions in English

  • Fabric and elastic requirements for all 10 sizes
  • Bonus elastic-waist skirt version without straps
  • Finishing tips and seam allowances included in the cutting measurements
Sizes & materials

Sizes run from 0-3 months to 6 years. Choose by waist measurement and use the child’s height to help check the length; age is a guide.

Choose a light- to medium-weight woven fabric, such as quilting cotton, cotton lawn, double gauze, or a soft linen blend. Allow about ⅝-⅞ yard, depending on size and fabric width.

You’ll need ½-inch soft elastic, matching thread, a ruler, fabric marker, scissors, sewing machine, and iron. The PDF gives the fabric and elastic amounts for each size.

Questions & answers

Do I need a printer?

No. You can read the guide on a screen and use a ruler to mark the listed measurements directly on fabric.

Is it beginner-friendly?

Yes. The guide uses straight seams, pressing, gathering, turning fabric tubes, and making an elastic casing. The illustrated steps take you through the process.

Can I make it without straps?

Yes. The bonus instructions use the same size chart to make a simple pull-on skirt with an elastic waist.
