How to draw a half circle skirt pattern

Hello dears,

The spring is coming and it means soon I can wear a skirts and dresses again. Some of you might know how much I adore the way people dressed in 50's and 60's. I absolutely LOVE half circle skirts and circle skirts. Since it seems to be impossible to find any on shops why not to make one myself. So here is the pattern how to draw half circle dress. Let me know if you're interested to know how to make circle dress. I can write a blog about it later :)


So, let's start. Bacily it's ridiculously easy to make half circle skirt. You'll need two measurements: waist measurement and the skirt length.
 You'll need your waist measurement and you'll divide it by pii. Pii is approximately 3,142. 


For example:
Waist: 80cm (31,496 inches)
Skirt leight: 50cm (19,685 inches)
80/3,142= 25,5cm (31,496/3,142=10,024 inches)

First draw a right angle on the paper. Measure the result you just calculated from your waist measurement (25,5cm, 10,039inches) from the corner and draw a curve using a compass. Then measure the skirt length (50cm, 19,685 inches) from the curve you just created and mark the length evenly from the first curve. Join the dots into an even curve. Voilà, here you have the pattern for a half circle. You'll need to cut 2 pcs of these or cut it once on a fold. Easy isn't it?

 
 

Till next time! Ciao! :)
