Suggested Fabrics

Midweight wovens suit the shorter lengths better: pinwale cord, velveteen, drill, quilting cotton. For a special occasion skirt try satin, chiffon, or silk.
Lightweight knits: modal, merino, jersey. Thicker weights such as French terry are not suitable.
Other Supplies & Notions
- Spool of coordinating thread
- Elastic 1/2" (1.25cm) wide
- Large safety pin for threading elastic through
- Optional - lightweight interfacing for front waistband (knitted or woven are best but non-woven would work)
