Evie La Luve, your preferred method for the straps has now become my preferred method. I watched and tried so many different ways - but yours turn out perfectly. Just like all your knicker patterns and your other tutorials. Thank you
I've been sewing since I was a 6 year old and you taught me a trick for turning out ties or spaghetti straps which has driven me nuts for years! I will be using it for making elastic ties for face masks! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Brilliant!
Amazing!! I didn't know either of these methods and this will surely revolutionize my swimwear making. Some of my patterns included something so professional like this. Thank you!!
Your tutorials are wonderful! You are a super clear and effective teacher! And your video quality is good which makes watching a lot more enjoyable! Keep it up! Do you have a website? Or just TH-cam videos?
Thanks so much, that's so lovely to hear!! I have an Etsy shop with lingerie sewing patterns, kits and supplies here: www.etsy.com/uk/shop/EvielaLuveDIY?ref=seller-platform-mcnav and a made to order lingerie shop here: www.evielaluve.co.uk Xo
Thank you for this tutorial! 💕 when you first sewed the rubber elastic to the fabric , how did you set your Serger as in what stitch length, width , 4 threads used and the differential feed was set at where? I remember you saying the knife was disengaged. Thanks in advance
Hi Evie La Luve! Ive been scouring the Internet to see if I can find information on making braided straps. My question is if you think I should make each strap with the elastic, then braid them together, or if you think making elastic free tubes and braiding them together would be enough support to maintain the stretch and hold. Just wanted your opinion! thanks :) I'm leaning toward no elastic due to bulkiness.
Thankyou for the video, I've just rewatched it because I'm making your willow bra in the wrap around style into a bikini top and I'm ready to make straps 👙✂
I lost my String it's a one piece juicy couture .the halter string that just ties in fron of Chest two places with Removable hooks go around Neck sometimes its Not real comfortable .and nows gone
Just a polyester thread rather than cotton. The threads on the rack are Coats Moon threads like the ones available here: www.minervacrafts.com/shop/sewing/thread/m1000-m-coats-moon-polyester-sewing-thread?gclid=CjwKEAjw4IjKBRDr6p752cCUm3kSJAC-eqRtNklbOg42gEY-Q8UEAz7ket72kJptNO8kBjbck_39dBoC-GDw_wcB
Funki Fabrics in the UK, the Fabric Fairy in the US (also great for swim elastics) and the sports lycra fabric from Spoonflower, all great for swimwear! As well as scuba fabrics from places like Fab Works and Fabric Styles.
The sound of your scissors cutting was so satisfying!
Haha I thought the same! I almost left the whole clip in but thought it would be boring for everyone watching!
EVIE la LUVE I fully support an entire video of just cutting!

The trick with the loop is the best hack I've seen this year! Thank you! Great video!
Indeed!
I thought so too and I've been sewing for years and years! I always had a fear of straps, nothing else, just turning those danged straps inside out!

Very clever methods. Thank you very much for sharing.
hi, how did you crate the gathers on the bikini top? did you stretch the elastic as you were sewing it?

I used three threads.
