Your hoop skirt and petticoat tutorials are the best! You really break them down in a way that's easy to understand. I'm definitely referencing them for making my first hoop skirt and petticoat for an upcoming project.
Just got the idea of making a crinoline base to give some pzazz to my halloween costume! I never sewn in my life (well, at least not seriously) and I'm happy I found this video! Seems easy to follow. At least I got how to plan it out haha! Hope I can make a decent job in such little time with no machine! Thank you for the tutorial!
This tutorial was perfect! You sure did save me a world of frustration. I'm making an unusual take on the "Queen of Hearts" cosplay for a local con. Thank you :)
This is gonna be helpful! One of the cosplays that I'll be working on soon I gotta make a hoopskirt and never made one before! Thank you so much for making this!
thank you! perfect, i want to try making lolita style dresses but i needed a crinoline hoop to support the skirt - this tutorial is exactly what i needed :)
Such a helpful tutorial !!!! Thank you !!! 💞 I have 2 little questions tho. First, can you sit easily with this ? Or do you have to be extra careful and sit like a victorian lady ? And second, can a crinoline work if it is slit ? Like if I want to make a dress that has a slit on the front and is puffy on the back, can I make a sort of half hoop skirt ? Or does that totally destroy the structure because you don't really have hoops anymore ?
Answers: 1. It is very easy to sit in, just lift the hoops slightly when you sit so they at on the seat with you. 2. If you add a slit it will not work in the way that is demonstrated in this video. There are ways that you can make an obliptical crinoline or even a lobster tail.
Can I use hard net instead of the normal satin channel so as to get a more fuller effect. This is because I’m to make a queen dress for my 7 years girl
I reckon this would be a lifesaver for aussie cons in summer! Will need to give this a try soon!
Hahaha you are not wrong there my friend!

@@KirileeCosplay thank you for your super fast answer !!!
Can I hand stitch it? I don’t have a sewing machine
You can - it will just take longer :(
How wide is your flat steel boning and where did you get it from?
It’s about 12mm and I got it from aliexpress
Can I use hard net instead of the normal satin channel so as to get a more fuller effect. This is because I’m to make a queen dress for my 7 years girl
If you would like too you absolutely can. Just remember that as she walks, the net might scratch her legs
@@KirileeCosplay you’re right… thanks so much
How do you make boning to stay a circle like that? My boning tend to be twist and make spirals even after ironing. Can you give some tips?
If it is flat steel boning it should not do that
@@KirileeCosplay oh. No I used plastic boning.
Plastic boning isn't strong enough for hoopskirts.
@ oh ok. Thank you. sadly I cannot find metal boning in my area.
@@shmwmlam3953which country are you in? (If you don't mind sharing :) )
thank you! xoxoxoxoxoxo
My pleasure!
would this work with heavier fabric?😊
Absolutely - that is where a crinoline will beat a petticoat any day
