Use a needle to make one gathering stitch through five layers of tulle.

Double thread your needle and knot the end.

A larks head knot will be used to secure the thread at the first stitch.

Do this so when the gathering begins the thread will not pull through the net or tulle for tne duct tape tutu.

Typically, two and a half to three times the waist width will be enough.

Do not bother to sew up the sides if you need more than one length on net.

Just slightly overlay the length over the next length and keep on gathering.

Duct tape is intrinsically difficult to use.  My technique to to put the duct tape on the door frame.

I then lift the tape a few inches at a time and put the net under the tape.

Once the first layer of the duct tape tutu is taped to the duct tape securely carefully lift the tutu and place it on a working surface.

The long ends of the duct tape are folder over the tutu.
