Rocking tutu x

cool-io

Would it work just to hot glue the tulle on?

sooo awesome! gotta make it!

I love this! I'm in a band, and it's not like we're that kind of band but I'm the "eccentric bass player" this just might have to go up on stage with me!

love, love, love, LOVEE!!!

So cute. <3

Cute! And looks super easy. Awesome.

that tutu is the best one I saw so far

Love this! I've been looking for another easy way to make tutus besides the tie on technique. Thanks! <3

Love it, very diffrent from the other tutu tutorial but just as cute. Already know what skirt I'm using for this!

How do you sew it?

How do you sew it?

This Rocks!

I love this craft, welll done! i seems easy to make, i think i will make one too!
thanks for sharing and the craft. Its adorable and cute, awesome

That is adorable! I love the lace on the bottom of the original skirt! I really like the colors you used.

that's HOTT if only i had patience

Oh! Cool! That is so rockin! I love it! YOu are my kind of ballerina!

By the way, been looking for one for a while, where did you get your manikin.

Awsome XD Last question before i rush off to my wardobe to find an old skirt of dress, pin all the tulle in place and then sew, or one by one?

yep :]
Be sure to take them all out though...
I missed 2 or 3 when I was finished XD;

ok, i get iyt Did you do the same with the tulle?

ummm I'm not sure of the technical term,
but I used whole bunch of dress pins to pin the skirt
into a silhouette I wanted, and once I sewed it in place,
I took the dress pins out. :]

It sounds amazing but i have a question. When you say 'pin it' whatdo you mean exactly. I want to make it, but i dont want a whole skirt held together by pins...

Reaaallly random. I just ripped pieces off randomly, so some are bigger than others, vice versa.

The randomer, the more volume

About how big where the pieces of tulle you attached?

Awesome! I can't wait to buy tule and make, like, a hundred of them *o*
(altough I don't wear skirts XD Oh well, I could make some for my friends!)

That's so awesome! :o
And I admire your patience

How did you pin on the tulle? Ive been trying a few different ways, and i cant make it look good. can anyone help?
thanks!

that is is such a great idea! ;)

You probably can, but it just looks nicer and it's easier to make if you have a skirt to start from. :]

Would i be able to just sew a tutu without getting a skirt?

GAH.
I WANT ONE.

It looks so cool and easy to make.

Lovely!

that is most definatly rockin

yaaay

wow i was totally up 'til 1:00 in the morning starting it all out and now that i've got everything pinned (yes, i put it all on first before sewing, *gasp*) i'ma fight my way through the tulle and hopefully get it done by the next day or two <333

best new take on a tutu, ever! looks like it takes lots less time than the traditional way of making a tutu, and is definitely more fun!

Great colors used! I love the bunched up look of the tulle as well. ^.^

whoaa.. i can never do that. i suck. =/
butt it looks prettyyy!!!!!

I wanna make one!

This is great! I've been trying to find the perfect tutu for my Mardi Gras costume. This is gonna be it! I can't wait to get started on it.

I love the way you rocked out the old skirt ! Great project , im jealous ! lolz.

It fraken rocks... I have tons of old skirts, I'm so going to make one!!! I can't wait XD

Thanks for all your comments! :]

ummm approximately 3m of tulle was used, although I bought around 5m just in case... it really depends on how wide you want it to be.

How much Tulle was used?

You are a GENIUS. This is EXCELLENT and perfect for my Rockstarr Ballerrrrrrina Costume. I whipped one up- I'll post pictures soon!

Yay! That tutu totally rocks! I've been in need of a how-to for a tutu for a while...thanks so much for posting! You rock!

Oh my AWESOME!!! that's just wicked cute!!!

Ooooo that's awesome! Tulle is the bestest.

Thats such a cute idea. I should make one for my little sister.
Shed love it!
