    That is just fantastic Anastasia. You made a daunting task so easy to follow. I’m definitely not afraid to take in a skirt like this now. Thank you for sharing your wonderful skills, especially as I had asked for this tutorial 😊

    WOW!!! This girl is AMAZING! I wish I knew 2% of what she knows about sewing. I recently got a thrift skirt that is too big. I'm ATTEMPTING to "fix" it, by simply adding an elastic band, inside the waist band, but now seeing this, I think my plan is dumb. 😢

      There are many ways to alter something and make it fit.

    I don’t sew, but the way you explained this made me feel like I can do this lol. I have a very similar skirt that I need to take in

    Great tutorial, thanks for explaining the steps and why it should be done this way. I did notice that the original skirt had either a little pleat or gathering along the top just past the pockets. But this feature was taken off of the 'new' skirt, leaving this area completely smooth. Was this a design choice? Thanks!

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Yes it was a design choice. I didn't want that little gather there any more and I figured it wasn't going to change what I was doing so I didn't mention it. I didnt want to waste anyones time ;)

    I love your alteration videos, thank you Anastasia! I tend to just quickly put in darts (without seam-ripping out anything) to take in skirts because the whole process seems daunting, but you've really made it look very approachable! (✿◕‿◕✿)

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 9 měsíci

      I’m happy to hear this 😊 I hope you seam rip, cut & put it back together next time :) Happy altering.

      I put it back on. I have a video on how to sew a button if you need help with it.

    I have a casual pair of pants that i just bought that are knit. They are very long waisted and the waistband is just a tad large. Can i use this technique? Also, waistband is just a ring so not sure what i am going to do with that.

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 7 měsíci

      Yes, you can definitely use this technique to alter your pants! Just follow the steps in the video and you'll be able to adjust the waistband and make them fit perfectly.

    I have a tiered skirt I bought from Amazon. I have lost weight and it is too long. I will send you a picture on Instagram. How can I take it in and up to just below my knees?

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 9 měsíci

      Does it have an elastic waist? You can hem it like “normal” here is a video on hemming How to Hem a Skirt OR a Dress | Sew Anastasia

      Yes it’s hard to find things to upcycle for us plus size ladies. I can’t afford new so. I go the goodwills and thrift stores and try to make them fit me. Could you show how we bigger ladies and upcycle and have fashion too

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 9 měsíci

      @@pamelahill7164 I’m thinking 🤔 maybe take 2 or 3 skirts & making them into one? What do you think of that?

      Oh thank you so much. You made my day! Going around hating on people will not make your day better. No one needs your negative comments. Keep them to your self. I assume you are a 12 year old boy but who knows.
