4. Overlock all the sides and center back of the skirt pieces
5. Fold the seam allowance 1 cm inwards on the left side of the upper front (piece 1) and sew at 0.7cm.

9. Sew the center back seam by placing back pieces right sides together. Sew from the zipper notch down, and press the seam open
10. Apply bias tape on the hem - start from the left side of the skirt below by placing the bias right face over the right side of the skirt and sew at 0.5 cm.
