Little Lovely Lacy Petticoat Tutorial

Hello!! Happy National Serger Month! What do I love most about National Serger Month? The DIY projects! You can stitch some really fun things with sergers and they can be so quick cute and professional looking! And so I bring you the Little Lovely Lacy Petticoat tutorial made mostly with the serger. Last spring my 4-year-old (at the time) was in a wedding. The satin and organza flower girl dress that I had made her was begging for a netting or tulle petticoat to poof that skirt out! So why not make one? Most little girls love poofy full spinnable dresses! So I schemed up a super easy way to make one almost completely with your serger!
