Bellydance Lace Skirts

Our friend's having a wedding and we decided to dance there. We wanted to make skirts in gold - the wedding will be gold, white and yellow.
The pattern is very simple and leaves the least remains possible. You just cut out a stripe from the fabric, fold it five times, pin the template on and cut five times at once.
It always gives you five big and five small pieces.
I folded the belt in half, tucked both edges in and ironed. I put twenty big pieces inside to get the hips' size minus 6. Then I laid another layer of small pieces, to the middle of the big ones.
 I sewed along the edge. I'd tried to pinn it so that the pins can stay there (quite far to the left).
 And the finished skirt.
