    Tutorial on how I resize my skirt to fit me and shorten the length of the skirt. Got this skirt for $4 at the thrift store, I fell in love the fabric, it is so on trend! I can wear it with a crop top or baggy sweater now that it is my right size.

    This is great, I need to cut a size 24 skirt down to a 16. The bottom I'm cutting off to use as a pill box hat. Thanks!

    it looks so pretty now! maybe you could sew a crop top out of the extra fabric, I think it would look pretty nice
