Adding Ruffles -- From Christopher Straub

A. Decide how long you want your ruffle and cut strips TWICE as long. Fold in half, so the fold is on the bottom, and make marks along the top edge. For this project I am making a mark at intervals of 5" followed by 2" sections. Make marks the entire length of the strips.

B. Join the dots together to form the pleats. Fold down the pleats in the same direction.

C. At this step you can either:
1. Stitch along the top to secure everything before attaching to the skirt.
OR
2. Pin along the top before attaching to the skirt.
