Very cute! One way to hold the patch and/or the trim onto the skirt (instead of pins), is to use a glue stick. You still must sew it, but it holds it for you and doesn’t distort things like pins can on thick patches or fabric.
Katie Love I’m not sure. There are products like Glue Baste-It and Lapel Stick that are made for sewing that would do the same thing, but are possibly better for the needle. I’ve never had a problem. I use just enough to merely hold it on while I’m sewing. With the appliqué you could just use glue stick in the center to hold it onto the fabric and then stitch around the edges like you normally would. For me it is fast and works way better than pins, which distort when the patch/appliqué or fabric is thick.
I really want to make this for my little sister. She loves skirts, bright colors, and 50s music. She'd love it, except, I think I'll make it a corgi skirt.
Dana, so glad to see you show your poodle skirt video. I made a pink one for my daughter in the 80s, hand-appliqued a huuuge poodle on the front...was up until 3am finishing it.
Great idea to turn the sneakers into saddle shoes with a Sharpie!! I am old enough to remember my red circle skirt with black poodle and matching red cardigan with the smaller poodle on top! A wonderful memory from when I was a little girl in the fifties..
An upload from you 😀 am I happy or what 😁 I sewed two dresses for my daughter and a trouser for my son watching you 😊😊 thank you so much! I wish you could upload more 😘
My daughters poodle skirt turned out perfect! Used silver 2in elastic, pink felt, silver ric rac and a black poodle dog. I just hot glued the ricrac and the poodle dog. And we added a gem on the dogs eye! So stinkin cute! Thank you! (Hot glue didnt hold up well on the poodle but lasted through the night, I'll use the iron on it to affix permanently).
Love, love, love. You make it look so easy. I just ordered the sewing machine. Can't wait to get it and get started. Thank you so much for the way you teach and explain so anyone can understand. It's amazing!
Fifties "poodle" skirts often did have various other patches besides poodles, so you are right on the money, Dana! I remember vinyl records were a popular patch. Or dice might be nice. Or a hairbrush and mirror would be adorable!
That looks awesome. I might be sewing my own poodle skirt for Halloween this year and it'll be the first time I ever used a sewing machine but I hope it turns out okay. Wish me luck.
Too Awesome, I can't wait to make that for my little girl. Thank you so much for sharing and thank you for you Awesomely positive attitude, it's so inspiring. Bless your heart.
Oh good! Yes. There are definitely "fancier" ways to make one, but I love how simple and fast this is, while still looking great! Glad you had fun with it!
Hello my name is Reagan and (this picture you see is not me it is my mom) I'm 11 years old. I have been watching your channel for over 3 years. My mom loves it! And every time you come out with a new one I am over joyed. You have taught me to be creative, have fun, and also follow instructions. So I am wondering if you can teach me how to sew a clutch. I tried making one but it was a good failure. Id be very happy if you did so. Bye :)
This is so beautiful and simple! I was thinking that if you wanted a nice fabric to wear the skirt out and about a great fabric could be “Scuba” fabric! It’s soft but stiff a bit like felt and it feels luxurious. Would love to see a version made of it! 🥲
Very cute and I really like how casual you are, that is very calming. I especially like the elastic application, I just got some from Amazon and I am going to die it, as you suggested. Great idea because I do not have to stress trying to find just the right color. Love your videos. I also have a vintage petticoat pattern and that will be adorable with my poodle skirt. I think I am going to see if I can find saddle shoes.
Would you consider teaching us how to do boot covers for roller skates and or ice skates ? I know there are some online but you have a particular style that has helped me a lot :)
please help, just watched and loved thanks for sharing, question one of my graddaughters is 16inches so do i cut in pattern 4 inch quater circle and when it opens it will be 16 inches is that how
I lately made a double cicleskirt on my channel and I thought this one was too. But it appeared to be just a single. Wouldn’t a double even be more cute?
Probably a couple yards. You'll have to draw your pattern piece first and then measure. The good news is---most felt on the bolt comes about 54 inches wide!
Yep! This poodle skirt is a circle skirt. It's made from FELT (But you can make a poodle skirt out of other fabrics. I just like how easy this fabric is. It doesn't fray at the end, and it helps the skirt poof out more.
Thanks for this great video. I’m introducing my daughter to sewing tonight with this skirt! I can’t quite tell on this skirt - are you simply stitching the elastic over top of the felt and not really doing two right sides together sort of seam?
Yep! The elastic goes right over the top. Watch my previous video on Circle skirts and you can see more about that: th-cam.com/video/oqNU0-ORkbA/w-d-xo.html Have fun sewing with your daughter! That's so fun!
Hi Meagen. A lot of the videos here would make great handmade Christmas gifts! Check out my videos for making: an apron, a zipper pouch, Bonbon Pets, Sherpa Fleece blanket, cactus pillow, tote bags, etc. Have fun with it!

I ruined 2 yards of the softest most beautiful candy pink felt! Waist was too big and it wasn't long enough AND I couldn't for the life of me figure out the waist band. How do you sew that on??? Obviously this was my first circle skirt but I feel like there should be more video of the actual process, not just holding it up for 2 seconds.
Let's make a poodle skirt for your 1950s dance, I said. It doesn't have to be a poodle, I said. It could be a cat, or a bunny, or even a unicorn! I said. She chose the unicorn: a rainbow unicorn SKELETON! :D
Yes, it means fold the fabric in half and then half again. The open edges of the fabric well be on two sides and the folded over edges will be on the other two sides. You would cut the waist from the corner that has the folded edges. This makes the circle so no need for seams. Try folding a tissue and cut the folded corner to end up with a circle. Then you'll feel confident cutting your fabric once you've got it.
Pin it on what side? Cut what in half? Pin it on the 8th? What? Pin it on the 4th? Huh…. This video isn’t beginner friendly… I have no idea how you sewed that on

My mother and I were just talking about making her a poodle skirt for a convention she is going to next yr!! perfect timing!!

I made my own saddle shoes for a sock hop party from tennis shoes with fabric paint. 2 coats to look the best. Cheaper than buying saddle shoes,
I love you video, can you also make a video explaining what the difference is in fabrics and what you can use them for?
Omg so cute! I would wear one every day! I love vintage skirts! ❤❤
I just made a poodle skirt, for a 50s themed dance! thank you so much for this tutorial! i love your channle!

Love all your Ideas. Skirt sooooo cute. Nice to see you back.👍😁
You are fantastic!! I love all your colors!
Thanks Cindy! These skirts are so much fun to make. Have a good time sewing! - Dana
Wow! You've been using Baby Lock for a long time now.
What other type of fabric can I use?
I'm always uncertain.
Can I sew with the stretch stitch too? (Just want to be sure.)
So darling!!! Thank you for sharing the fun today! ♥♡♥
I wish I could wear one & go to Harajuku, Japan where people don't care it's a vintage item.
Hi Dana! Can you please make a video on how to sew a strapped shirt/ pinafore dress? I love all your creations and works. Thank you

Dana, is the top you are wearing one of your patterns? I love it. Thanks for all the great videos.
Hi! Can u please show us how to make a teddy bear?
I love the intro! Nice tutorial.
How much fabric would you need for an adult one?
Probably a couple yards. You'll have to draw your pattern piece first and then measure. The good news is---most felt on the bolt comes about 54 inches wide!
Love your ideas and videos! Ah-mazing!❤️
Hey! When’s the next video? You should do some Christmas stuff!
Can I ask what did you use as the leash is it yarn or ribbon
Hi! I’m still new to sewing. What type of thread would you suggest for making a garment out of 100% cotton?
Totally cute i love it awsome 🥰
Cute
Dana, what is your trick to growing your hair so long? Products, vitamins? Also, that shirt is a must have, is it your pattern?
Yes any ideas on growing hair longer ?
Please show poodle skirt for an adult! Can I make a circle skirt I'm 5 foot 7 inch and need to know how much felt for me.
Been waiting so long
Hi Dana, Thanks for the video. Did you make your checkered blouse? It’s beautiful.
Poodle skirt and circle skirt are the same thing right?
What's the material of the skirt?
Yep! This poodle skirt is a circle skirt. It's made from FELT (But you can make a poodle skirt out of other fabrics. I just like how easy this fabric is. It doesn't fray at the end, and it helps the skirt poof out more.
Thank you so much
@@MADEEveryday
Did you use wool felt or acrylic felt? I'm having trouble finding wool felt.
@@janaebui3835 Just cheap acrylic felt...the kind you find on the bolt for about $5/yard
I bought some fabric at a thrift store and there were 3 poodle skirts included, unmade. This could also be a TREE SKIRT! lol
Yes! Would be a great tree skirt!
Does anyone know if you can do the skirt part with other fabric types? I was wanting to make a circle skirt but not out of felt
Thanks Reya
Hello from sunny Australia! I was wondering if it would work making this dress with tulle? (it's a flowy type of tulle. Not super thin or super thick)
Can not get the type of material used. Played it 4 times but can not get it.
