Do you have a video on how to cut a notched collar jacket?

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi there. Sorry I don't right now. But we can do one in the future .

[@cynthiayalini8385]

Hi what would be the calculation for 2” pleats.
For 1 pleat that is 2” we would need 6” of fabric
So shud we multiply waist * 6 ?

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi Cynthia. Yes, that's correct. Remember to add sewing allowance for seams.

[@hildakakuva8821]

Thanks, how do u calculate 38 hips pls

[@rgieasysewings]

Hey Hilda. No need to calculate hip measurement when making a pleated skirt, because of the excess fabric, it's guaranteed to be wider than your hip

[@sophie7456]

I just discovered your channel and loved your videos ❤❤ just a small note , the music is louder than your voice n it would be better if you turn it down a little

Hi Sophie. Happy you're here! Thanks for the heads up. We've already made the adjustment in our recent videos. So there's no music during the tutorial.

[@yaasaah9158]

Pls I have a question, " How did you get the 36"?

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi Yaa Saah, Can you be more specific? Or perhaps you can indicate the time in the video you're referring to.

[@obiefulechinaza9603]

Well-detailed tutorial, I understood everything except the part you divided 86 by 36, My question now is how you got the 36 you divided with the 86

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi Obiefule! 36 Inches make 1 yard. So dividing the 86 by 36 was to determine how many yards we would get in 86 inches.

[@kimsteele7714]

36 inches equals 1 yard. So this is to find out how many yards of fabric you will need.

[@deijah2228]

Hiiii, what would be the side width ? That’s what I’m confused about

[@rgieasysewings]

Hey Deijah, no problem! We're to help. You'd have to give some details though. What are you referring to as the 'side width '?

[@deijah2228]

@@rgieasysewings the skirt length. My waist is 36in, Would that be my judgment on how short I want it to be right ?

[@rgieasysewings]

@@deijah2228 Mmmmm. I'm a little unclear about your question but I'll do my best to explain. In body measurements, 'width' refers to measurement around areas. For example, waist, hip, and bust. For length, you measure from top to bottom. For example waist to knee or knee to ankle. Your waist measurement is not the judgment for the length of the skirt. The length depends on your preference. So for that, measure from your waist toward the floor. stop at the length you would like. Could be the floor, your knee, below the knee above the knee, wherever. It's your preference. Hope this was helpful.

[@cordellasamuel695]

Most materials are 60"wide how many i need for knife pleate skirt

[@rgieasysewings]

The amount you would need depends on the waist measurement

[@hasnabilirar2464]

Well explained

[@rgieasysewings]

Thank you

[@raybrown1145]

How do you calculate the amount of pleats that are needed?

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi Ray, to do that you would divide the waist measurement by the width of the pleat. So, if the waist measurement is 28" and each pleat needs to be 2" wide. 28/2= 14. So you would need 14 2" pleats for a 28" waist. Hope you understand

[@raybrown1145]

Thank you so much.

@@raybrown1145 you're welcome

[@baileytsukino2222]

I have a question what if the skirt or dress already has the pleated but the skirt or dress is too long and you just want to make it shorter. If you cut it and sew it will that damage or lose it pleated

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi Bailey. No, cutting and sewing will not cause the skirt to lose the pleats. When you're done, just lay the pleats properly (you can use straight pins to hold them in place) and iron the skirt.

[@baileytsukino2222]

@@rgieasysewings Can you do a video on this subject because no one had made a video on it. You search on youtube there are tons and tons on how to make a pleated skirt but not a single one of them teach you on how to make a it shorter without damage or losing it's pleated

This is a great tutorial if i want 2" pleats and my waist is 30 I know I divide by 2 so I would have 15 2" pleats but do I still multiply by 3

[@rgieasysewings]

Thanks. Yes you should still multiply by 3. The measurement per pleat would be 2 X 2 X 2

[@JrAllianceWellRed]

@@rgieasysewings Thanks so it means that my fabric would be 90" plus seam allowance for a 30" waist

[@rgieasysewings]

Yes. That's correct

[@alaooluwafunbi2597]

Shouldn't it be 30 ×6. Since you said every 1 Inch pleat equals 3 inches. Correct me if I'm wrong please.​@@rgieasysewings

[@rgieasysewings]

Hi hi. Remember it's 30". There are 30 1" in 30. You would multiply each of those 1" by 3, hence 30" x 3. I tried to simplify it... hope it makes sense.
