For the skirt, pick the lenght and width of your choice. Measure it and cut

The elastic band should measure the same as the bottom of the shirt.

When you sew the elastic on the fabric pull a little bit as you go.

When your done sewing the elastic, unite the edges and sew as well to finish the skirt.

I really like your use of an accent bow, as well as the bit of length and visual interest sewing the shirt and skirt together provides. Having the shirt extend down a bit makes it look a tad fancier. Excellent job!
