This all started when I tried to make a skirt with leftover fabric I had from a scarf I was making. I didn't even bother filming it because I was pretty sure I wasn't going to love it. And then.... I loved it. And so did everyone else! So I decided to make a dedicated video for this skirt and also demo it in a different fabric so you can see the versatility of this "no-pattern" pattern.
Take some time to decide where you want to place your hole, as that will create an entirely different shape.
The red plaid one was centered from right to left, however I placed the hole closer to the front then the back - making the front shorter.
Play around with what works for your style!

I -like- really love how with the plaid it evokes the same look as tying a plaid around your waste!
yes!
I just came here to say that 😂
"You guys, it's just a rectangle with a hole in it!"
I have been bingeing your videos for weeks and i LOVE the way you explain things. I don't sew (yet!), but this definitely made me think "i can crochet that."
You're instinctive and creative, I bet that would look really good. Hope you try it out!
@sabrinapitt1466 thank you! I do have a habit of making things up 😋 I have a few projects I'm currently juggling, but once one of those is done, I will start messing with this skirt!
Omg same lol
Omg this crocheted would also be very cool!
Awesome idea... what stitch would you use?
Great job Orly! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻You could also try wearing the shorter skirt with the longer and have a cool layered look.
oooh that would be fun!
I agree!
THIS will become my fav-skirt for autumn. So cute and wild ❤
The blue one is really short 🤭
If I had her legs, I’d wear it that short too! 😛
With the blue skirt (pre-cropped length), I would have gotten some large safety pins, added a few embellishments to the pins (charms,chains,beads,whatever), then gathered up some of the fabric over the left knee and pinned it in place. That way, you still have the length when you want it, but you can create a temporary “slit”-style look and add some cool punk elements.
VERY fun skirts!!!
great idea!!! do it!!
Amazing! Can't wait to try making these skirts!!! I'm 61 and I don't care. I'll wear WHATEVER I WANT.
Age is just a number anyway 😂 ❤
Omg!!! I love it!
I love how you show “this didn’t go perfect, but here’s how you can fix it”. Messing up is always my reason for not trying things!
I found a pair of boots and bought the gold foil (from an old video) AND IM GOING FOR IT!!! ❤❤❤
yes do it!!!!
Thank you for showing 3 versions of the skirt. I also appreciate you showed that "boo-boo" where the plaid fabric pulled through the elastic when sewn at some points. It's good for us who don't have as much experience to see that things like that happen to sewists with a lot more knowledge than our own!
Totally, random quirks happen all the time, usually it just requires a little creative pivot. lol
Love it! I’m such a fan of you and your channel! You have inspired me so much for years! I love to take your tutorials and sometimes tweak them to make them a little more me. I feel like adding some decretive safety pins and distressed leather would be super fun for fall with the plaid pattern! Xx 😘
This makes me soooo happy! The whole point if this channel is to provide a nugget of an idea that you get to take and run with! make it your own :)
I like how the creme (first) skirt falls! I am not really a plaited kind of girl and would want to edge nicely done. But nice idea for a skirt. Did make an oval one (with the back longer), but the straight angles gives it a nice vibe. You could do a 2 layered one if the fabric is very fine (and semi-see through) to give it even more depth and movement (organza, tule etc).
Orly! These are an outstanding example of designing on a short string! Literally. I agree with others abt the flannel (plaid) looking like plaid tie around from back in the day. This was huge in the 80s. They all look adorable on you. ❤ I just love this channel.
Wow you amaze me with your creativity and your ability to pivot when others might feel like it’s not what you first intended
Thank you. The pivot usually ends up being some of my favorite elements so I've come to look forward to it lol
Those skirts would look amazing layered together! Short skirt underneath, and the long skirt on top (with the thigh slit orientation).
OOOOOOrly!! So SO So very happy (again) to see you uploading on the regular and wow, early this morning! You've started my day with so much joy!!
Your designs are amazing and very inspiring. I am 69 years old and still wear fun clothes…keep up the good work. Can’t wait to get to o “skirting.”
heck ya!!! no age limit on style.
This reminds me so much of the look from tying a plaid button up shirt around the waist, without any of the bulk!
Cute! I can see you making one of the short ones for Blake😊
omg totally.
I made me one of these from a $3 blanket from Walmart... one of those Felty Ones .... Even though it's a skirt, it's SO WARM!!! Perfect for fall/light winter wear. ♥ Thanks so much for the "how to" video.
Simple but so stylish! I might even try this, being in my 60's I often hesitate to try some of the A-symetrical looks, as I think they might be too young looking for me. Others out there in my age bracket?? Besides being a Plus size girl...
there is no age limit on style. If something feels good to you, you should wear it with pride
Man Orly! You get me every time! I bought fabric for last weeks project and now I gotta go back and get more! Love it!!
haha well if you bought the fabric for the scarf you should have enough extra to make this skirt!
Love these, ahh Orly I’ve just bought a pair of yellow checked curtains to make at first wide leg trousers then a circle skirt, now I just don’t know whether to go for one of your skirt styles ❤
Ask yourself which one you would want to wear tonight if it was made.. then make that one!
@@TheDIYDesigner the beige length one , I’m not a spring chicken anymore X
Orly! I am in love with that red plaid one! The black elastic looks so good on it too! OK, now I really need to get myself back to Joann’s and without the hubby. 😅 Thank you for another amazing tutorial!
haha go go go!
Woman, you did that so stunning. I can't wait to try it. Love it love it.
Oh heck! I’m obsessed with this skirt too . The red plaid skirt would be perfect for a fall wine tasting date. It looks so romantic and saucy at the same time with a kilt-ish vibe.
Omg I'm obsessed with the last one 😍
Love both skirts! I've been looking for a great fall skirt! This red plaid will be fabulous into the holidays!! ❤️🍁🍂🎄✨️
I decided I'm wearing this skirt, Metallica graphic tee, blk leather leggings, and my Harley boots to Metallica show in November!! 🤘🤘
Love how the cream set looks elegant and the plaid more comfy casual! Either way, fantastic!❤
I'm obsessed now too and can't wait to make several! Thanks for all you do! Blessings of love and light to all!🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼
The flow of the mini turned out great too, and still gave off the same vibe!
Drooling 🤤 so CUTE!!!
Looooove this! I love this. I’m still obsessed with some other, older plaid skirt that I think you made (it appeared in one of your videos, and I think about it all the time!). But this is also fantastic! Looking forward to trying this one.
The seam pulling through to the other side-I’ve had that happen when the machine’s tension is off for the fabric I’m using. I’m not enough of an expert to know anything more than that, so…that’s not super helpful, I know! 🙁 But maybe it provides a clue!
These are so cute. You absolutely did the right thing with the circle skirt. Im old and heavier than I was but I have an old table cloth that I’m going to dye with marigolds and make a skirt. You always inspire me even if it’s not my style I want to use what I have or thrift to add to my wardrobe.💕
One of my favorites!
I love how well you rock these. I'd look ridiculous.. or like I stole part of an outfit from an extra from the walking dead
I really like it in all lengths. Very cute and easy. Tacking down the elastic is a must! If one doesn’t, it seems it never straightens out and lays evenly and lumpy
Using a ball point needle on your machine might prevent that problem when stitching through the elastic.
But as always, your design ideas are wonderful. These skirts are great, especially the workarounds.
thanks!
So cute! My favorite is the blue plaid skirt!!
Another cool idea, can't wait to make it❤
Love it the cream one is really fab...❤
Awesome, I'm excited to make.
I'm so excited.
Ahh love them both!! And the bleaching is 🔥
For the waistband fix, to wear the green side out. just pick out the threadbits, snip them off, and then take a black sharpie and color over any leftover threads you couldn't get out. They'll never show! After washings, if the black marker fades, just re--color! Been doing this for decades!
Your fabric is pulling through because either your needle needs to changed (it’s dull or not the right one) or your tension has been unbalanced. I’d say the needle though
thank you!
I came here to say the same thing--a dull needle will snag the synthetic elastic and create those little holes. I love this skirt idea and can't wait to try it with thrifted tablecloths!
Woww. Stunning
Cute! Easy to do!
I like this. So simple. Thank you.
YES, the blue one looks INCREDIBLE short!! I really love this idea for doing some patchwork to use up scrap fabric...
That’s the fun of it, you can make it however short or long you want.
exactly!!
yes. love that
Love the DIY skirts.
Also not sure but the reason The threads came through the other side of elastic could be due to excessive tension in the machine stitch count.
hmmm Ill check that. This machine is sooooo old so I just assume its that lol
Very cooooool!!!!!! I love all of them!
How fun! ❤
Just beautiful 😍 I had to make it, so yesterday run to the fabric store and made the sleeve scarf and the matching skirt. Absolutely gorgeous 😍 but another one is in the queue for today, not mentioned that boots will be next 😀 You are so inspiring!!!! Love, Love, Love your videos!!! Thank you 😊 💓
Im so glad!! I have worn so many of my recent DIYs relentlessly over the last month haha
Didn't manage with the boots 😢 I must be doing something wrong or have wrong shoes to begin with. The "sleeve" keeps rolling down and makes it unwalkable... 🤔 how did you make them stay in place? I mean they slips down the heal and under.
This is gorgeous! And perfect timing! I just bought some yellow plaid that would be perfect with this design for my store!
Love love love them!!! I also love how stinkin easy it is to make!!! ❤❤❤❤
Adore your enthusiasm!
It would be amazing to stack two or three of these into a single skirt...I have a bunch of men's shirts that I want to upcycle and it would require piecing but I think this would be cool such a cool use for them...A shirting fabric is thin enough that two layers plus the elastic would still go easily through a machine. This also showed me how to fix/alter a skirt I have that is too big and the elastic rolls....
omg yes!!! this is a beautiful idea.
As always very cool😊😊
You are a genius Orly - Love your work !!!!!!
Super cute ❤
YASSS LETS GOOOO DUNE SKIRT ❤😍😍😍 CANT WAIT TO MAKE THIS
Looove these ❤
Great tutorial 🎉🎉🎉
I always love the last part- when you model the dress.❤
haha so do my neighbors 🙄
Love this
I am so glad I have found you,❤
Thanks you so much.
At first I wasn’t sure how the mini tie dyed skirt was going to turned out like but I’m loving the end results. I like it more than the red plaid skirt. Amazing as always ❤
oh thanks! Yea it took me by surprise too
Love them! total Avril Lavigne vibes. I would never have thought to spray bleach on them. Don't bend over when wearing that blue one, though! 😳
hahah
Beautiful ❤
So much to love. You are creative and brilliant. God Bless
I’ve been waiting all week for this video and you didn’t disappoint. Love it and so darn easy. Your three skirts look amazing but I still adore the first one. Thank you for sharing.
I'm so glad!!
Orly
I took the tube top and made one with a lighter fabric, more loosy and added elastic at the top! Love, love this, and then paired my black and gunmetal rocknot necklace and I am so pleased
omg stop!! I want to see! will you send a pic to ROCKNOT's IG?
Love it
Love all of these! I'm a grandma so I'd make the midi length with boots
Wow all the skirts look amazing, how dang easy is this🙌🏻🙌🏻 your the best!
right?!
So funny seeing you sew - I have a piece of painter's tape on my bernina, and I swear the little rumpled bit is in the same spot - made me do a double take
hahaha twins :)
Woow I love it 😍 😍😍😍 very cool ideas 👏
Very pretty 😀
Orly! Consistently awesome content. I seriously don’t know how you do it
Oh man! thank you!!
Thank you❤❤❤❤❤
I’m not a fan of grung but I’m a lover of plaid. I’ll have to look for some plaid to make this skirt.
ちょうかわいい!!!!
so pritty!!
Cute!
As always you are amazing !!
oh thank you for watching!
Love it!!!❤❤❤
So cuuuute! ❤❤❤❤
As you model the 'grungy' shorter skirt, I'm thinking, "What would it look like with tights and/or leather boots - **tall** leather boots, maybe thigh highs. Grungy and leather are a great combo (IMO, of course)...
You're incredibly creative ✨ 😍 ❤ 👌
Harika bayıldımmmmm🤗❤️Türkiye den merhaba🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️
So grooooovy!! ☺️👍
Brilliant
Wow! This turned out great! I think it may be time to learn how to use the sewing machine my mom bought me a decade ago 😂😂😂
Love those boots, too. That was also a DIY you did, I seem to recall. 🤩
do it do it!
Oh my God you’re good! They all look great. Of course everything you put on looks great. Ha ha ha. ☘️
well that's really nice :)
6:50 Oooooorrrr..... you could also use the reverse side of the fabric, or a different fabric if it's not reversible. Thanks for the tutorial, new subscriber here!
I found a beautiful table cloth that is made of heavy fabric. I.think it would make a gorgeous skirt.
DO IT!!!
I like the original and the red but I am obsessed with the blue, short, skater skirt! I can imagine a little sexy black lace at the bottom hem….🤔
oooooh! do it do it!!
These are going to be great for fall, maybe over some leggings and paired with one of your grungy leather jackets. Either would look great with your no sew ruffle concert T upcycle and either your Metallic Jacket or the black leather one with the stars, and some appropriately grungified boots! Even some of the safety pin upcycle tops!
totally!!!!
You could use the red one as a poncho
Looooooovit❤
I sure wish I'd found you 3 months ago, I desperately needed to know how to make this for a plaid overskirt for Highland Weekend at Ren Faire!😂❤❤ Now do you have any videos on a simple gathered skirt for a beginner?❤
