SEW AN EASY SKIRT



1. 2-1yard lengths of 45" fabric. I'm a big girl you smaller ladies will need to cut some fabric off one of the finished edge or, depending on the fabric and your size you could use one length and just fold in half andsew one seam down the finished edges.

2. Hold the elastic around your waist, stretching it a little, overlap the edges and cut.

3. Sew and press open seams on finished edge.

4. For casing, start by turning over and pressing the edge at 2".

5. Match raw edge with crease at 1" .

6. Press edge only.

7. For hem Press a 1" edge.

8. Press raw edge to crease and press only the edge.

9. Sew along the very edge leaving an opening about of about 1" for the elastic to go through. Do the same for the hem only you don't need to leave an opening.

10. Use a large safety pin to guide the elastic through the casing.

11. Hand sew opening closed.

A God Ordained Job


Genesis 2:18
And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.Titus 2:3-5

(King James Version)
3The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
4That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
