How to Make a Flared Skirt

Make your own flared skirt! Learn how to sew and stitch a flared miniskirt with a zipper and pocket in this free video on clothing and fashion design.

Series Summary

Sewing is an ancient craft that still has remarkable relevance in today's modern world. The art of stitching and assembling pieces of fabric together either by hand or with the use of a modern sewing machine is still a valuable skill and can be used for industry, home, or artistic purposes. Industrial sewing is usually done with the use of machines, but for seamstresses, alteration givers, and most casual sewers, an old fashioned needle and thread is still incredibly useful and more often than not the desired method since it enables far more detail. Tailoring and dressmaking require not only a needle and thread, but also other tools and materials that you can find easily at arts and crafts stores.

This free instructional video series with expert Candi Cane-Canncel will teach you how to make your own flared miniskirt from scratch. You will learn to measure your hips and waist for the perfect, sexy fit. Candi then teaches you how to draw a pattern, cut a pattern, and cut panels of fabric to match your design. You will learn how to stitch a pocket together and add it to your skirt, along with a professional zipper down the side. Candi also teaches you how to sew the skirt together, arrange the pieces for a fashionable look, and finish the seems and hems. Happy Sewing.
