If you're beginning out by making your little princess a nice tutu then you'll merely measure her up and get the amount of tulle that you just need. I might recommend you run the tape measure around the furthest part of your childs waist and take a measure from there.

When you've got found out what length your daughters waist is double that measurement and get your tulle accordingly. That means you can double up the fabric and give the tutu a lightweight but full body.

If you tie the elastic then I would advocate you also tie some tulle over the knot to hide it from view and in fact put it in the back. You'll additionally add a pleasant bow to utterly obscure the knot.
