anyone know anything about materials?
Okay, I have a few questions regarding something I will be making. I'm going to be making a no sew tutu, it explains how here:

I have a few questions about this.
1. I'm a chubby girl. Not obese, and borderline overweight but I'm quite chubby. So obviously I'm going to have to use extra material than most people. The girl in the second one said she used 6 yards of material, but there's a small gap. So I was thinking of 9 yards (8 metres) of material to make mine (Remember you cut it up to make it poofy) Do you think I should do this? It's obviously hard to estimate not seeing a picture of me, so I understand if this question is too hard to answer.
2. Today I went to the material shop. The woman reccomended I use nylon instead of tulle, because nylon is more tutuish, and cheaper and tulle is more for 'evening wear' should I use Nylon or stick with Tulle? I haven't seen a Nylon result, but I really like how the tulle result turns out.
Um, that's all I can think of at the moment :) Thanks in advance.

CHuBBy pshhhh alll girls should have the right to make a tu-tu ! i think nine yards will be wounderful with a little left over ! quesiton whos wearing the tu-tu ??? hmmm you are!!! so if your heart desiers the tulle then by all means buy it! and you so can wear a TULLE tu-tu as evening wear ! all you have to do is get a grate pair of skinny jeans ( witch the any one in the world can wear) and some cute skimmers or pumps
and a tee or button up and layered tank and your bella glam!!!

if you really think you need 9 use 9.
and i think you should use nylon. or atleast the first time you make it unless you mess up or don't have enough/too much.
good luck =]
