Hii one question, when you do the elastic as a waistband you streched it right? Because the elastic measurement and the fabric measurement ain't same So doesn't that make the waistband wrinkle or you ironed it?
You explained so well, thank you🤗. I want to try making one. And that skirt came out so well👌. I dont have an elastic or a zipper, can I try instead with a stiff cloth for the elastic and tie ribbon extensions for the zipper? 😅
This video is exactly what I need! Can you please help with this question. I need to have 2 side seams ? Did you add 2 inches plus waist measurements to accommodate side seam and zippers seam?
@@SonellaGo Girl thank you for your quick reply. I want to make this skirt today. Your a life saver… one more question, the elastic should be the exact measurement for the waist right?
Porque le pones el cierre de lado sera xq esa tela se mueve x todo lados y el cierre atras se mueve y se para y nunca queda bien sera x ese tipo de tela????
Ooh I'm sorry but I don't know the prices😅 and I don't usually look at the price when I buy fabrics because I want to use quality fabrics when making my clothes ahaha. Btw the fabric I used here is mulberry satin 120-180 pesos per yard I forgot ahaha. I bought it at divisoria
i folded it diagonally. the length of the skirt depends on your height or how long you want it to be. but if it's the fabric itself I think this was 1.5 yards
After cutting the fabric, and before you do anything else, fuse a strip of interfacing along each seam allowance where the zipper is to go. This will stabilise the area and stop it from stretching.
I don't really get the beginning of the video. How did you get 2 pieces to sew together? FOr the hip measurement divided by 2, is it the length of the line? SO did you cut the triangle to be the exact length of your hips/2? Please can someone explain/
You fold the fabric into a triangle first. Then measure your hips. ÷ 2 and that measurement is what you'll use. Since your fabric is folded, once you unfold it, it will give you the full measurement of your hips
If iam starting out. Beginner. I want to make this skirt in green. Please tell me the type of sewing machine I need and what other equipment I need. Please thank you. I really want to save money making clothes myself that fit my body.
I started out making clothes with a mini sewing machine for kids since is cheaper and it's not as complicated as the professional ones. You should get a really thin needle size 7 or 9 for delicate fabrics and go up to thicker needles for heavier fabrics
No i just folded the fabric in half in a shape of a triangle. Then measured my hips and divided it in half + half an inch seam allowance (this is the first measurement) then measured the distance from my waist to my hips (2nd measurement) the measurement of my waist is not so important since usually the waist of this skirt is a little big thats why we used the elastic as a waistband to make it fit more on our waist. The last measurement is the length of the skirt. This depends of you on how long you want it to be. Hope this helps!
Maaaan if only I knew how to sow I would have tonnes of these skirts! 😭 it’s so expensive buying them in store! 🥺

This video is exactly what I need! Can you please help with this question. I need to have 2 side seams ? Did you add 2 inches plus waist measurements to accommodate side seam and zippers seam?
Yes i did. If you want to have two side seams then just add another half inch or 1 inch then cut it on the fold

Would I have too double fold my fabric to make the two pieces of fabric or would I have to do it again?
Just fold it once and it will give you the whole skirt
Hi there, do you add seam allowances to your measurements, there is no mention of this? Thanks. Love the color for your skirt. Thank you.

No its not ahahah
Excuse me what is the formula the you used , te yellow lines?

From your waist use a tape measure and go down to your hips

How to remive the elastic feeling ?
Such beautiful and simple skirt!! ❤️❤️😍 Can I make this with Cotton fabric?🥺

Ooh I'm sorry but I don't know the prices😅 and I don't usually look at the price when I buy fabrics because I want to use quality fabrics when making my clothes ahaha.
Btw the fabric I used here is mulberry satin 120-180 pesos per yard I forgot ahaha. I bought it at divisoria
Hi do you stretch the elastic when sewing on???
Yes
Did you also divide your waist by 2 to make the circle?
Yes i did
@@SonellaGo Thank you sweetie 💕
Hi ,I ve noticed there is one seam only if you wear the zipper and seam at the middle backside does it look balanced ?
No it will not unfortunately
Should we strech the elastic while taking waist measurement ??
No don't stretch it
How much fabric do we need?
Your work is beautiful 🤩
Thank you!
Hi ♥️ how you fold the cloth and how long is it in meters?
thanks alot 🥰
i folded it diagonally. the length of the skirt depends on your height or how long you want it to be. but if it's the fabric itself I think this was 1.5 yards
Can we use satin fabric for this skirt
Yes of course, the one I used in this video is called mulberry satin
Thank you
Hi! I tried making the skirt and I am having issues with the zipper bulge. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it? It'd be really helpful! ❤️❤️❤️
I also have that issue ahaha what I do is I iron it flat
Thank you. Will try that 👍❣️
After cutting the fabric, and before you do anything else, fuse a strip of interfacing along each seam allowance where the zipper is to go. This will stabilise the area and stop it from stretching.
Thanks for the tip!
What fabric did you used??
This is mulberry

@@SonellaGothe hip divide by two would be the waist measurement or hip measurement?
@@SonellaGoand the waist is 27 does that mean I divide by two than put it on fabric or just put the line of 27

Earlyyy 🥰
What’s the fabrics dimensions? Bc I have followed every step. I might sound stupid but does this affect my triangle to be slimmer than yours?
I when you show your finish cut you have it clipped. Did you do front and back panel?
No i just folded the fabric in half in a shape of a triangle. Then measured my hips and divided it in half + half an inch seam allowance (this is the first measurement) then measured the distance from my waist to my hips (2nd measurement) the measurement of my waist is not so important since usually the waist of this skirt is a little big thats why we used the elastic as a waistband to make it fit more on our waist.

Hope this helps!
You didn't metion the size of the fabric, but is looks perfect.
This is 1 and a half yard
You go girl🥰
Thank youuu!
What’s the length of your zipper?
Its 20" but dont sew it all the way, I cut of the excess
@@SonellaGo thank you and love your videos❤️
