How To Make a Skirt In 30 Minutes
Be smart and iron your fabric beforehand (it really does help) - don't be lazy like me! ;)
Other tips for improving on your skirt (thank you so much to Marialla for these suggestions!)
"Two tips I'd like to share: besides ironing the fabric before you sew, you might also want to actually starch it, especially if the fabric is very thin or at all stretchy, or if there are any smallish details you want to add (like pockets). Once I started starching all my fabrics before sewing them I was FLABBERGASTED how much easier they were to manipulate and sew perfectly. You can finger-press a hem and it STAYS! This tip is especially useful if sewing anything bias, curved, or slippery. (I learned this when making hand-pieced quilts.) The starch washes right out of the fabric afterwards, no problem.
Second tip: in a waistband with wide elastic and a simple casing like this, sometimes I find the elastic rolls or folds over. To fix this problem I sew vertically across the elastic, through the waistband, at four corners of my waist (front, back, sides). This doesn't interfere at all with the waistband's movement or stretch within the casing, but does prevent it from rolling or folding. The natural gathers in the waistband totally hide these little extra vertical lines of stitching."
