Fabric Tutu :)

I made these for my girls...I just picked abut 10 fabrics that I liked...I did purple & aqua for my older daughter and then orange and aqua for my younger daughter...so I used the same aquas for both and then chose about 5 of their coordinating color to go along with the aqua.  Here are some pics of how I did it....first I had to cut the material into strips and I used shearing scissors to give it that zig zag look.  I made the strips about an inch to 2 in. across--I varied the sizes.....once I had my strips you can see in the pictures what I did.  I bought one strip of elastic waist band and I used it for both girls...I measured them by wrapping the band around them and giving myself an extra 3 in. and then cutting.  Once I was done I tied the waist band and cut it.

I used the paper towel rolls to hold the elastic after I measured the girls...I didn't tie the material...I just slip knotted it over the band.  Worked great! :)
