Yumi recommends using the website <a href=\"http:\/\/easycalculation.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/easycalculation.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1472568957746000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHxp5GT2fKEpfCoCVIjp0lddYzASw\">easycalculation.com<\/a> to find out what the dimensions are for your inner and outer circle.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Once you&#8217;ve figured that out, cut out both circles and place your pattern onto the vinyl fabric.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Secure in place and then cut out the vinyl material using the pattern.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Next, you&#8217;ll need to create your waistband, which is the same dimensions as the inner circle skirt circumference.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Sew together using your sewing machine and then turn it right side out.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Topstitch and then hem the raw edges.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Pin the waistband to the skirt and then sew into place.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Pin your zipper into place and then sew to the skirt, making sure to sew the two bottom edges of the skirt in place.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Here&#8217;s where it gets extra fun! Yumi used a decorated vinyl material with a paisley design for the bottom edge of the skirt, but the possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n<p>Measuring carefully, she cut out the needed fabric for the bottom of the skirt, and then sewed it into place. For more custom designs, she created hearts out of fleece material for a cute, feminine design.<\/p>\n<p>To save time, she hot glued each heart into place, but you could also sew for a more secure hold. Her finished product is totally adorable, with a nice lolita-inspired look.
