  Step 1

  To Make This Tutu You'll Need:

  Tulle - 2 Yards Of Each Color But You Probably Won't Use It All.
  Elastic
  Measuring Tape
  Strong Quilting Needle
  Thread - I Use White
  A Clip - Optional, I Use It To Hold The Elastic Together.

• 

  Step 2

  Take Your Elastic & Measure It To The Length You'd Like It To Be.

  This Is Usually A Waist Measurement That Someone Has Given Me Because I Don't Make These For Myself.

• 

  Step 3

  Clip Or Hold The Ends Together & Sew Them. It Doesn't Have To Look Perfect Just Make Sure It's Secure.

• 

  Step 4

  Take Your Tulle & Cut It Into Strips.
  For This One I Used Bright Blue, Green, Purple, & Hot Pink.

• 

  Step 5

  I Stretch My Elastic Across The Back Of A Chair.

  Or If You're Making A Small One, For Say A Child, You Can Stretch Around Your Thigh.

• 

  Step 6

  Fold The Strips In Half & Loop It Around The Elastic By Pulling The Ends Through The Loop.

• 

  Step 7

  Keep Repeating Step 6 With As Many Colors As You Choose.

  I'm Choosing To Use 2 Of Each Color To Make The Colors More Prominent.

• 

  Step 8

  Keep Adding And Adding And Adding...

• 

  Step 9

  Here's The Final Product.

  This Was Made For A 32 Inch Waist But Will Stretch To Much Larger.

@TURTLE , you could find them at a fabric store, would probably be your best bet to find the right amounts. Though you never know what pops up at your local thrift stores.

Beautiful.

Did it once, didn't want to again. That chair tip would have saved me a lot of work. I might have another crack at it.

Thanks a bunch!
