Now you can attach the flounce to the new tapered hem. You will now have a big “donut” of fabric. Cut it so that it is one long piece.
Then, start spreading the flounce over the hem of the skirt, pinning the hem to the inner circle edge ( that was marked with blue pins in the previous step). As you pin, you will notice the flounce spreading out and creating the cool voluminous ruffle. You can conceal the raw edge by sewing it right side to right side, or make it as it is in this creation by sewing it right on top and leaving the serged edges out.
