Oh my gosh, I just subscribed to your channel!! If all your videos are this well done, I will be coming back for more! So excited to try out the skirt.
I learned so much with this video~ I’ve never sewn garments but your explanations made it so not intimidating! Love your fabric & color choice. Thank you for the instruction and inspiration ❣️👍
Thanks! I just had a great idea for elastic. Buttonhole elastic (as you find in most toddler pants) should be great for fluctuating sizes like bloating or just weight loss or gain!
Thanks Laura so much for this tutorial. I have just sewn up two of these at around knee length and they are perfect thanks to your easy to follow instructions. Fabulous!
This is fantastic. My grandmother has gifted me her old serger and sewing machine and this will definitely be my first garment for myself. This mimics Sag Harbors skirts (which are my all time favorite) and they're so hard to find. Love this so much.
You do the best tutorials. You keep any chitchat to a minimum and the instructions clear and concise In the words of Sgt. Friday. Only the facts Ma’am. Thank you
Wow, I always wanted to make my own long skirts and you make it look so easy. Your explanation is simple enough for me to want to give it a try. Thank you!
Excellent instructions! I have been sewing for a long time but can always learn something new, and I like how you 'grabbed' the top of the pockets and sewed them into the waistband for a very neat finish. Thanks for creating a great video!
This looks “sew” easy that I can hardly wait to run out and buy some rayon fabric and sew up several skirts! And with pockets! Excellent video! Thank you so much!
Love rayon batiks for apparel, drapes so nicely with a soft feel. Beautiful fabric you used. Love this skirt, thanks for sharing and I want to make this for myself. Looks so comfy!
Thank you for your video - I do not sew really at all and was able to make a cute skirt to go with a theme for an upcoming event fairly easy! And with pockets!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been wanting to make my own summer skirts but patterns just seem to complicated! I'm saving this video so I can make this skirt.
Laura your videos are so well presented and easy to follow. I am in the first stages of sewing a skirt (from a pattern I had made) when I came across your video. While my pattern is a bit more shaped at the waist, I think I can just follow your wonderful instructions for everything (even the pockets!). I have about a meter and a half of fabric left and am now thinking that a blouse would be a great go-with to be able to wear as a dress or an overblouse with a tank top to extend its versatility. Thank you for sharing this - your method greatly simplifies the sewing process which we all appreciate!
Thank you so much!!!! I followed this to make a skirt for a medieval festival on a time limit. Made it in two days! Ended up having to make the waist band much smaller once it was on, as I think the weight of the fabric stretched it out a bit, or maybe it just needed more tightness to keep it up (both front and back were 54" each, as I wanted it really nice and full). Looks beautiful and is very comfortable. Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial!
I love how you made the pockets - I must do that next time I make a flowing summer skirt. You showed everything so clearly. I look forward to seeing what you’re going to make next time in the sewing room.
I love the way you explain things! I'm an experienced sewster, but I didn't know about using the little swatch of fabric to connect the elastic ends! Cool! I'm making a skirt for Ren Faire and I love the pocket idea!! :)
Wow! Thank you so much! This is perfect! I've put on quite a bit of weight since the lockdowns. So I've decided to sew my own skirts. As an absolute beginner, I don't even know where to start. Now I know :D
You explain SO patiently and thoroughly - I really appreciate it! Also your voice is perfect for instruction. Watching these makes me totally remember and honour my grandmother who had her own sewing school. Thank you!
Hello, my name is debbie I live across the pond in the UK, I stumbled across your site by accident and what a good accident it is. I have found some lovely rayon cloth for sale it is really cheap off ebay I have read up about rayon and other people say that it is not a good fabric to use it creases does not allow to sweat very easy etc. Unfortunately I am in a wheelchair I like to make my clothes I get them to fit better and I can make them to my shape I want to make a flowing skirt and now I can with your help from this tutorial I can make exactly what I want and dont have to line it another plus, having not used it before I was not sure if I had to put a lining in it. You have made my day thank you very much I have subscribed to your channel so I can see what else you like to make and what other tips I can pick up bestest regards a very happy Debbie from uk xxxxxxxxx
I made it last night! I love it. I've never sewn with Rayon before and it was a little slippery but I got there. Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I never knew that Rayon was a natural fabric. I wish I knew more about the different types of fabrics used for clothing. At any rate thank you again.
Hi beautiful teacher. I just love your skirt. I just finished stitching a cotton skirt. I love it so much. I followed every step of your tutorial.. I will be making at least 5 more.. Hehehe.. Love you loads for the best skirt design. Much love and God bless
Thank you. I was wondering if cotton would be too bulky with so much fabric. I am plus size so the fabric will be spread around moreso than someone smaller. I think I will try it. I will wash and dry first as the last skirt I made with a pattern shrunk to a different size.
Thank you for this great video. I was wondering if there is a ratio you would suggest for deciding how much fabric you need for the fullness, would it be double the waist measurement?, etc. Was just thinking if I want to use this great tutorial for my granddaughters how much fabric I would need for around their waist. Thanks Laura
Using soap to mark fabric is literally genius!
Pockets 😍 best tutorial, so clear, so concise, warm and confidence building. Thank you.
Loved your mini bolt of cloth ...even though I’ve been sewing for 40 odd years I learnt something new...sewing the elastic together! 🥴😂💐
Same here!
I really like the pocket sewn into the waistband. No saggy pockets!
Thanks for showing visually about the fabric in the bolt. I’m a newbie beginner sewer and I learned a lot from watching you! ❤️🪡🧵✂️
I love this skirt! I have trawled the internet looking for a pattern for a skirt like this, without success. This is wonderful; thank you, Laura! 😊😊😊
I really like your style...very easy to follow for me. Thank you very much!
I love this skirt. The soft ration fabric, the pockets, the length and the color, all make it perfect. Wonderful and beautiful Laura. Thank you.
Thank you Laura. Your instructions are so clear and your positivity is lovely. I look forward to your projects and am sewing again.
Oh my gosh, I just subscribed to your channel!! If all your videos are this well done, I will be coming back for more! So excited to try out the skirt.
I learned so much with this video~ I’ve never sewn garments but your explanations made it so not intimidating! Love your fabric & color choice. Thank you for the instruction and inspiration ❣️👍
Love it! Beautiful hue, lovely skirt! As always thanks for your clear and easy to understand tutorial. I’ll be sewing this skirt using rayon material.
Another beautiful Skirt. Love those pockets. Skirts are my favourite. Thank you. 🇨🇦❤️
This is the best tutorial I have seen to make this type of skirt. I can’t wait to try it.
Wow! I love the fabric and you made it look so easy that I'm going to save your video to make one for summer! God bless you!!
Thanks!

In the past I did a lot of garment sewing...so it is nice to get motivated to sew something besides quilting

Wow, I always wanted to make my own long skirts and you make it look so easy. Your explanation is simple enough for me to want to give it a try. Thank you!
Excellent video and methodology for making a skirt with pockets! Thank you sew much! What a simple way to construct it...
Excellent instructions! I have been sewing for a long time but can always learn something new, and I like how you 'grabbed' the top of the pockets and sewed them into the waistband for a very neat finish. Thanks for creating a great video!
I love your tutorials because you explain everything so clearly and in layman's terms. Thank you 🙏
❤ love this...I have been trying to make a skirt but its been hard for me. Your teaching method was very good and easy to follow. Thank you.
This is a brilliant tutorial and exactly what I need for my next project! Your pocket method is a lot easier that what I had planned, so thankyou!
I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR WONDERFULLY EASY AND PRETTY RESULTS

This looks “sew” easy that I can hardly wait to run out and buy some rayon fabric and sew up several skirts! And with pockets! Excellent video! Thank you so much!
Excellent way to explain things. I am an experienced seamstress, but I learned something new with the sewing the ends of the elastic together!

Love rayon batiks for apparel, drapes so nicely with a soft feel. Beautiful fabric you used. Love this skirt, thanks for sharing and I want to make this for myself. Looks so comfy!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been wanting to make my own summer skirts but patterns just seem to complicated! I'm saving this video so I can make this skirt.
What did you use to pull the elastic through the waistband?
This was the best instructions for this skirt. best pockets I ever made, thank you!!
Thank you, thank you for this video. Thanks for explaining everything as you go along. You have a gift for teaching.
