soft and drapey
A circle skirt needs drape so the wide hem falls in soft folds rather than standing out stiffly; cut on grain and let the bias hem hang before levelling.
Avoid: Stiff canvas, Heavy upholstery fabric
③ Place a motif
Preview where a chest print, pocket or embroidery will sit before you cut — then print it as a placement guide.
④ Print & cut
