Hoping I spelled your username right. Didn't you do a sew along for a circle skirt dress? It had a keyhole back, if I am remembering right. I can't find it anywhere. Any guesses on the right terms to search for?

Allison - I don't know where it disappeared - I tried searching too..... I'll upload the pics in this post in a bit - I'm sure you won't need instructions with it ;)

Some of us Allison wanna be's could use the instructions :D

1. Bodice

2. Measure width of bodice

3. fold skirt fabric in half lengthwise (I've used less cos it was a 2T size)

4. fold again (so its in quarters)

5. Measure an arc = total circumference of bodice divided by 4

6. Cut out the arc

7. fold in half (so that its easier to cut out the hem parallel to the waist arc). Measure how long you want the skirt to be and mark it - measuring from the arc you cut.

Lol ..... the only reason why the I put the last 2 pics was cos Allison mentioned the keyhole back and I wasn't sure whether she wanted to see the keyhole back or the circle skirt....

You're welcome Mama's......


Monica

I didn't actually need the sew along, but a couple other people asked for it and I couldn't find it anywhere.

I'll move it to the FAQ forum after it has been up for awhile so we don't lose it again. Thanks for typing it up!

Yay, thank you!! I need to try that one too :D

beautiful! thanks so much.

THANK YOU! :bow:

About how much fabric would you use for a 4T?

Depends on how long you need the dress. For my DD's dress the final length of the skirt was 14". & I think I used over a yard of fabric....
