Like Lisa's friend, I also need an extra long 25 yard skirt. I currently have a Flying Skirts 10 yard skirt in long (38inch), which I washed and hung try and now is a fabulous 41 inches that just brushes the floor. But the performance peice that we are doing at the end of the month, I really need a 24-25 yard skirt. I looked on ebay and found one that was 39 inches, so I ordered it. But when it arrived, it was much closer to 36inches (way too short), and I didn't think even with washing and hanging it would end up long enough. So does anyone know where I can order a skirt that is 39+ inches?
Oh, and I am sewing stupid, so I can't just modify a shorter skirt....

Re: Extra long 25 yard skirts - where to buy?
Fri, April 25, 2008 - 4:48 PMIt's called a Seamstress.
Take the skirt that's too short and ask your local seamstress if she can add another 4 inches of black fabric to the waistline to lengthen the skirt.
It'll probably cost you $20 and the cost of a yard of fabric to do it, and you'll be able to use the skirt you *have*!
(...but adding to your collection is always good too... ...off to go wander the links...) -
