Pierce the elastic twice with the needle end of the large safety pin and close it. Pin the right side of the waistband to the right side of the skirt’s waist and sew them together with a 1/4”. Wiggle out of the elastic and sew it together at that point.

Sew a 1/4” guide line from the raw edge of the waistband and press under. With the elastic folded in half, sew it together, using a 1/2 inch seam allowance: Measure the skirt length (from waist down to where you want the skirt to fall) and add 2″ seam allowance.
