DIY Easiest Skirt - beginning sewing - gather waist skirt

This tutorial will work best for the beginner sewist who has made a few things before but would like to try making a skirt. I have made myself a bunch of skirts using this method and I love how simple it is.

A few notes on GOTA certified fabric
The fabric I use in the tutorial is from: https://monaluna.com
When I found out there was a certification for organic, fair trade, low chemical process fabric my heart was so happy. Have you been frustrated with the lack of ethical/sustainable cool clothes that are plus size? ME TOO. Luckily I can sew and make my own. If you are an absolute beginner NO PROB.

Steps:
Measure your waist. Remember that number

Measure how long you want your skirt: keep it longer rather than shorter. Your butt is going to make the back rise up a bit, so a longer skirt will be better to start with.

Lay out your fabric with a fold in the middle.

Measure from the fold to what your waist, then add 1/2". For example, my waist measurement was 48, then I added 1/2" and the total became 48 1/2". Super easy, don't stress too much.

Measure out how long you want your skirt then add 4", my measurement was 20" and I added 4".

Cut and sew! Follow along in the vid or ask questions in the comments if you get stuck!
