I would buy 3yards of fabrics cut off astrip for a waist band, sew up the side leaving room for a zipper, gather up the long top strip and sew to the waistband, add zipper.

I hated sewing! But for some reason I was determined to do it and eventually came to love it.<br />Be patient with yourself, make sure you have quality scissors (sharp ones) for cutting your fabric out.
