The Most Fabric Saving Way to Make a Skirt™

As promised, here is an actual tutorial following 'my favourite method for making skirts' video. Hope this is helpfull when it comes to drafting the pieces and help you get an idea of how to make skirts and other garments this way. I hope you give this a try, please tell me how it went! Some tips: -Shorter skirt requires less fabric, but a longer one requieres more. -With a narrower waist, the skirt will be wider. -With a larger waist measurement the skirt with my 6 pannels, will be less wide. -More Panels = Wider Skirt -Ditch the pockets/placket and the skirt will be wider. -A zipper can replace the placket. When using the same amount of panels, and same width of fabric as me(134cm) the width in the hip region measures 156cm or 176cm with the double gathered back. To achieve more width you need to add more fabric, either wider panels or more panels. I found that working with a wider fabric will not change the width in the hip area, but it greatly changes the hem. I used a narrow waist measurement for my skirt which in turn made the hem wider. So when using a greater number for the waist, the hem will be narrower. Once again to achieve the same silhouette as above one might need to add wider panels or more panels. This is in no way an original way of thinking of patterns, today we call this zero-waste: Which is exactly what it sounds like, zero- or a minimum amount of waste. I got the idea when I wanted to make a ankle length circle skirt, but i only had 2m of fabric. I remembered looking at patterns for medieval dresses and how they drafted them in a way that let nothing go to waste. Surly that would work for something as simple as a skirt as well? That is the orange linnen skirt worn briefly in the end segment.
