We are moving right along with another modification to the Lazy Days Skirt<\/a>. Today I have a bold stripe, color block<\/a> version for you which is similar to the 10 stripes Fairy Tale Dress<\/a>. I’ve got two versions of the same skirt. The first one has a double-thickness hem and the second one has a regular hem. Both of them have three stripes that have approximately the same thickness.<\/p>\n

You can really have a lot of fun with this one, playing around with all different kinds of color combinations. How about a black, white, and black one? And an ombre version would be very interesting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Three<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be giving you the lengths needed for each stripe. First sew the stripes together using a half inch seam allowance. This is the perfect opportunity to practice French seams<\/a>, that way the inside of the skirt will have a clean appearance. Then sew the side seam and finish the skirt. By the way, for the two linen skirts that I created, I made 18 inch skirts with 44 inch wide fabric.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fabric length algebra<\/strong><\/p>\n

Where X = length of finished skirt in inches<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> All measurements in the charts are rounded to the nearest eighth inch.<\/p>\n

For the Three Stripes Lazy Days Skirt with a double-thickness hem refer to the double-thickness hem tutorial<\/a>. You will need for the following:<\/p>\n

Top stripe: X\/3 + 2
\nMiddle stripe: X\/3 + 1
\nBottom stripe: (2\/3)X + 1<\/p>\n

For the Three Stripes Lazy Days Skirt with a regular hem, fold and press a half inch to the wrong side, then again a half inch and topstitch. You will need the following:<\/p>\n

Top stripe: X\/3 + 2
\nMiddle stripe: X\/3 + 1
\nBottom stripe: X\/3 + 1.5<\/p>\n
