Ruffled Skirts Tracing Worksheet — Medium Patterns to Draw Independently for Ages 6–8
A narrow waistband, sides that flare out and a frilly hem: on this eight-row sheet for ages 6–8 each skirt is one closed line, and after one dashed copy your child draws the rest from the model.

How to use this worksheet
- Start on the dark dot at the top-left corner of the waistband and draw across to the right.
- Slant down and out on the right side, then make the hem from right to left: a row of small scallops.
- Slant back up on the left side to the dot. Twelve to sixteen skirts fit in a row, so keep them narrow.
What this worksheet teaches
The skirt joins straight slanted lines with a scalloped hem, where the pencil makes small bumps while moving from right to left. Moving leftward is less natural for right-handed children, which makes it good control practice. The two sides must slant outward by the same amount so the skirt stays symmetrical. With rows only about half an inch tall, all of this happens at handwriting size, and drawing from a model trains visual memory and planning, not only tracing.
Variation to try
Make a fashion line: in the second half of each row, every skirt gets a different decoration inside, dots, stripes or tiny hearts, while the outline stays like the model.
