No Sew Tutu

Remember my elementary crafting skills?  Yes, my sewing skills are probably worse.  I can sew on a button and once I made most of a baby quilt, okay pathetic, I will stop there.

Anyway! This project is sewing free and precise measurements are not needed.  It requires one stretchy headband elastic and about five yards of tulu (I had to look up what that was).  Mine was multi color so I use 2 of one and 3 of the other.

Fold the tulu and cut strips that are about 3-4 inches wide. Fold a long strip of tulu in half place it next to the tulu to form a loop at the top.  Pull the rest of it through to secure it onto the elastic.  Don't pull too tight in case you need to adjust the placement of the strips. Surround the entire elastic and when you are finished you have a wild tutu.

Tada!


There are several variations of this on the web, my favorite was on skiptomylou.org
They have pictures for every step.
