This is the 1st TU TU I have made and need to know how much to cut off the bottom.
I put velcro on the back so it can be taken off. Had to made headband to match.
Thanks for the help!!! DeVon

Hi Devon, I would say that it must just cover the "bum/bottom" It looks great

I think this depends on the child. Is she walking or crawling? Shorter is better so she doesn't rip it while she's crawling. If she is so young she doesn't do either it doesn't matter as much. It looks adorable!

Tutus can be any length for real ballerinas so that doesn't matter. My daughter had one on a bathing suit when she was a baby and it was only about 2 inches long. I have some beautiful paintings of ballerinas in the 1950's with long ones below the knee and short ones that stick straight out.

I'd say put in on her and see how it works with her moving before you alter it. Headband is a nice touch.

If she is in a onsie - I would say - just below the bottom - to leave room for crawling and all that stuff.

I agree with Shirlene. Same length as onesie or a fraction shorter. Very Cute. Marg

It looks wonderful!! The length depends on size of child. Most patterns I have state to measure from the waist to the knee for skirt length. I had found one that even stated lengths for ages, but for the life of me I can't find it anywhere now that someone else is asking. Figures!! Good luck!

this looks so sweet and lovely! But as a former ballerina I should say, it has to become a bit shorter, make it just a little bit longer as the onesie is.And if you do have enough material perhaps even add one more layer of the tutu . But it's so lovely. Can you post a picture of the diva with this tutu also?

Great job....can hardly wait to see the Diva in this. You want it short, just to cover the onesie.

I'm not sure either, but it is just gorgeous! I'm sure whatever you decide will work out just fine. Love the matching headband.
