Does anyone have a pattern for a short chiffon ballet, dance, or skating skirt?

I need to make 5 short chiffon skirts for the fairies in A Midsummer Night's dream. I an looking for something similar to a circle skirt--heck, it can even be a circle skirt!

Many Thanks :)

Kwik Sew has good dancewear/skatewear patterns, and most fabric stores carry them. Another good pattern brand is Green Pepper, also available in fabric stores.

I would make it shorter than this one.
Back to high school math class

measure the waist and add one inch. This is the circumference of the circle you cut for the pattern and mark it "waist". cut the pattern in paper and place the waist circle on another piece of paper, near the center. draw the circle and a second circle however many inches you want it to be long and add one inch for seam and rolled hem. Cut out the center waist crcle, the hem edge and a seam from waist to hem.

You have made your own pattern and can adjust for each girl.

http://www.simplicity.com and http://www.mccalls.com are the best easily available pattern companies online.
you dont need a circle skirt, just cut the fabric about the length you want plus hem and waist, and gather a lot of it up tight to fit the waist, add waist band and hem it. circles are a friggin pain to hem.
