Hayley, if I didn't want to make the full length version of the Nicks dress and instead make a dress that ends at the knee (I see you did the same) how much fabric would you allow for not adding the bottom tier please? TIA xx

Hi Laura - The final tier pattern piece is 40cm and is cut 4 times - so 160cm less fabric. I'm not sure how tall you are - I'm 5'7" and found it finished above my knee so I added a little extra ruffle on which took it below my knee.

Thank you Hayley, I am going on the basis that 3m of fabric will be ok, I'm only 5' 3", I found that out at a recent Drs check up and had lost 2" in height :)
