You just saved me like hours of work. I did not think you could use the ruffler. And the 3 to one ration, fold over pics, and not doing it in the round.
I am giving you a standing ovation here in Texas.
THANK YOU.
Now I can cut that chiffon that has been screaming at me. I was just like a deer in the head lights.

Great work! I think pretty much any tutorial is accepted around here because we always love to learn new stuff. I especially love the baby's one with all those layers scrunched together! Maybe I will attempt one as well.... Do you have any idea of how much you used on the small one?

I don't know how to quote, but to answer your question sewingmel about yardage requirements for the small one:
For the satin charmuese you need 8 inches (my waistband is 8X36, so the width of the fabric accomodates the 36".
For the skirt color of the nylon chiffon, you need 2 strips of 54" fabric for the first tier and 6 strips of 54" fabric for the second tier, so 8 strips that are 4 inches wide--total is 32" (I think you have to buy in 1 yard increments, so you should get 1 yard.)
For the fluff chiffon, I did a ruffle factor of between 2 and 3. For a ruffle factor of 3 and using 2 inch strips, you can get them all out of 1 whole yard of 54" fabric. And I do mean 1 WHOLE yard. It will use every piece. If I were buying, I would buy the 1 yard of this and use the extra 4 inches of the skirt chiffon that I bought to practice on w/ my ruffler.
Let me know if this doesn't make sense.
