Lori, I didn't look at the links recommended to you. The way I make tutus: Non rolling elastic, sewn together 1-2" smaller than the desired waist size. I use the rolls of tulle. Cut each strip twice the length you want the tutu to be. Fold tulle in half and make a slip knot around the elastic. Put on as many as you want. Put it on your child (or adult, lol) and watch them twirl!!

Off Topic:
Friends. It seems so natural to call you all friends, even though I don't know what most of your look like. I have had a whirlwind of technology this weekend. My computer was old and began acting up. There were keys that, off and on, wouldn't work. Then my track pad stopped responding. I would have to wait 10 seconds and try to move the cursor. Then, I had to wait 20 seconds, then 30... So my dh asked if I trusted his financial decisions. I said, "100%". He said to put my shoes on cause we were going to get a new computer for me. I was flabbergasted! While we were at the Apple store, I talked to a tech about my phone. It wouldn't connect to wifi. They tried everything to fix it and ended up giving me a new phone. Then my husband upgraded the operating system. All this to say, I have to relearn how to use my phone and my computer. My head is spinning and my mind is exhausted. Step by step and piece by piece I will learn. I will learn. Maybe if I say it enough, I will really believe it.

Renee~you probably felt that way about the old phone and old computer at one time....once you start doing it, you'll get it pretty quickly...I say this with confidence cause I recently upgraded my phone :thumbup:

Stacey, I am so glad your package arrived before Christmas...I was sweating that since it was packed full of snowmen and Christmas fabric! It was such a fun package to put together and I am glad you liked my "homemade" things. I was on a roll for sure...at least for me! Merriest Christmas to everyone.

Lori I like the sound of taking the train. I keep thinking I will do that next time I go back to NJ! Please be well.
