Half-Circle Fill-in (EASY!)

This fill-in is so easy, anyone can do it in about an hour - or less! You don't even need a sewing machine. All you need is about 3/4 yard of nice drapey material that goes with your dress, and scissors, needle and thread.

When you fold the circle over, fold it unevenly, then drape. This creates a tiered effect. (Note: this only works if both sides of the material are pretty):
