Free circle skirt pattern for girls

My little missy has been saving her pennies for a pair of roller skates for a few months. She had a little photoshoot this past weekend and I told her after the shoot, we would go shopping for skates and I would pay the difference of what she had and the cost of the skates.  (Mostly because I didn’t want her ending up with the cheapest pair…)

OH MY GOODNESS!  She’s been in roller skate heaven for the past week!  Roller skating is all she wants to do.  She looked so cute in her little Hello Kitty protective gear and skates, that I was completely inspired to sew her a new little roller skate outfit!  (In her new favorite colors of course!)

Roller Skate Skirt Pattern

You will love how easy this skirt is to make!

What makes this style of skirt one of my favorite skirt patterns to make is that the bottom/skirt part is a modified circle skirt, and the waistband/top is a separate yoga-style waistband. 

I personally enjoy wearing yoga-style waistbands due to the comfort factor and I think they are even easier to sew than an elastic waistband.

What I mean when I say “modified circle skirt” is that it is a circle skirt made with panels. So not only do you use less fabric, but your options for fabric combinations are endless! 

Fabric Suggestions for this Free Circle Skirt Pattern

There are 2 parts to this skirt.  The yoga-style waistband and the paneled circle skirt.

The waistband needs to be some sort of cotton/rayon/spandex blend knit fabric that has good stretch and recovery. The exact fabric I used for the waistband in this version is no longer in stock, but this is it in another colorway if you want to check out the fabric description.

(Update – Since writing this post, I did do a pattern-hack version with all quilting cotton fabric. See how I added an elastic waistband instead of yoga-style here.)  

For the bottom circle skirt, you can use either woven cotton or knit fabric.  You could also choose to use one single fabric and cut the pattern in one piece (as I did in this circle skirt. Just tape together more of the pattern pieces) or sew it together in panels for the look I made.  

By sewing the panels together though, you are actually able to get away with using less fabric.

Fit Chart for the Roller Skate Skirt Pattern

Supplies Needed to Make this Skirt:

  • Pattern
  • Sewing Instructions
  • 1/3 yard of rib knit or cotton/rayon/spandex knit with good stretch and recovery for the waistband.(or any stretch fabric that has about a 50% stretch and good recovery) 
  • Amount of fabric needed for the bottom skirt will vary based on size and fabric width. You could fit the size 10 skirt on 1 yard, if the fabric is 60 inches wide or greater, but anything less wide and you would need close to 1 2/3 to 2 yards
  • ballpoint/stretch needle
  • iron/spray starch
  • basic sewing supplies

    Cool pattern, thanks for sharing! My little miss has a really long torso but is slim on top, so shirts get outgrown in length before the bodice stops fitting. I think I will add a circle skirt to the bottom of these shirts to make play dresses!

    I got one of these sewn up yesterday and it was such an awesome pattern. Went together so well and was a really quick sew. You can see some pics here: http://ateliertracyk.blogspot.ca/2015/05/i-cant-believe-it-has-been-year-since-i.html if you are curious. Thank you so very much for both the pattern and the tutorial. I also sewed up a Swing Tank Top to go with it 🙂 Happy me and happy child, all thanks to your patterns.

      Oops, that's height. I must have cut off the far left column when cropping the photo. I'll get that fixed!

    How can I make this in just one piece of fabric, without the panels?

      by printing multiple panels, taping them together and cutting it out in one piece.
