    Loved your mini bolt of cloth ...even though I’ve been sewing for 40 odd years I learnt something new...sewing the elastic together! 🥴😂💐

      What did you use to pull the elastic through the waistband?

  • @cassaundramccully645
    @cassaundramccully645 Před 2 lety +11

    Thanks!
    I just had a great idea for elastic. Buttonhole elastic (as you find in most toddler pants) should be great for fluctuating sizes like bloating or just weight loss or gain!

  • @gloriafoster7775

    This is fantastic. My grandmother has gifted me her old serger and sewing machine and this will definitely be my first garment for myself. This mimics Sag Harbors skirts (which are my all time favorite) and they're so hard to find. Love this so much.

  • @cathygliewe9273
    @cathygliewe9273 Před 3 lety +4

    Excellent instructions! I have been sewing for a long time but can always learn something new, and I like how you 'grabbed' the top of the pockets and sewed them into the waistband for a very neat finish. Thanks for creating a great video!

  • @dianneunderwood8456
    @dianneunderwood8456 Před 6 měsíci

    Laura your videos are so well presented and easy to follow. I am in the first stages of sewing a skirt (from a pattern I had made) when I came across your video. While my pattern is a bit more shaped at the waist, I think I can just follow your wonderful instructions for everything (even the pockets!). I have about a meter and a half of fabric left and am now thinking that a blouse would be a great go-with to be able to wear as a dress or an overblouse with a tank top to extend its versatility. Thank you for sharing this - your method greatly simplifies the sewing process which we all appreciate!

  • @tessmoore3762

    @braveatheart Před 2 lety

    Thank you so much!!!! I followed this to make a skirt for a medieval festival on a time limit. Made it in two days! Ended up having to make the waist band much smaller once it was on, as I think the weight of the fabric stretched it out a bit, or maybe it just needed more tightness to keep it up (both front and back were 54" each, as I wanted it really nice and full). Looks beautiful and is very comfortable. Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial!

    I made it last night! I love it. I've never sewn with Rayon before and it was a little slippery but I got there. Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I never knew that Rayon was a natural fabric. I wish I knew more about the different types of fabrics used for clothing. At any rate thank you again.

    Hello, my name is debbie I live across the pond in the UK, I stumbled across your site by accident and what a good accident it is. I have found some lovely rayon cloth for sale it is really cheap off ebay I have read up about rayon and other people say that it is not a good fabric to use it creases does not allow to sweat very easy etc. Unfortunately I am in a wheelchair I like to make my clothes I get them to fit better and I can make them to my shape I want to make a flowing skirt and now I can with your help from this tutorial I can make exactly what I want and dont have to line it another plus, having not used it before I was not sure if I had to put a lining in it. You have made my day thank you very much I have subscribed to your channel so I can see what else you like to make and what other tips I can pick up bestest regards a very happy Debbie from uk xxxxxxxxx

      @carolg.6838 Před 2 lety +2

      Thank you. I was wondering if cotton would be too bulky with so much fabric. I am plus size so the fabric will be spread around moreso than someone smaller. I think I will try it. I will wash and dry first as the last skirt I made with a pattern shrunk to a different size.

    • @SewVeryEasy
      @SewVeryEasy  Před 4 lety +2
