Hello everyone!! Well, school is over, I've had a break, now back to my hobby...and obsession. So, my ren garb I made for myself and my friend worked out pretty well, but I have some work to do on them. I'll post pics later (including one with FaireMare if I can get it from my friend's camera! Lol). I followed tips on making my own hoop skirts and well...it didn't go as well as planned. I used polyurethan tubing and light weight cotton fabric and it kept dipping in the front and collapsing on the bottom hoop.
What can I do to fix this?? I have to make a really huge hoop skirt for a Giselle (From Enchanted) costume I'm gonna start working on, but I want to fix my hoop skirt for the ren fest in Oct.
Any tips??

I think it addresses this issue.
