1) Place the trousers flat on the table, cut off the trousers from the bottom, and keep the two trouser legs below.

2) Cut the two trouser legs into two rectangular pieces of fabric. Look carefully at the picture. The middle seam of the trousers is retained. This will make the skirt look more shapely. Of course, you can also sew at the middle seam. Cut.

3) Wrap two pieces of fabric around the body, measure the required fabric size, and then trim it. Usually the skirt hips need to be trimmed into a slightly curved shape.

4) After trimming, sew the two pieces of fabric together, and then make a skirt that can be worn with an elastic band. Thread the elastic band to complete the narrow skirt. When sewing, remember to leave the seam allowance inside the skirt, and then turn it back to the front after sewing.
