Thank You for Watching!
Thank You for being here and I hope that this channel encourages you to sew and make beautiful things!

THANK YOU(in shouting voice because THIS IS WHAT I AM HERE FOR!) I've been waiting for this for soooooo long!
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it. 😍😘
Yay! :) So happy this tutorial is finally done and out :)
I found a lovely wrap skirt online about a year ago, bought the fabric, but when it came down to drafting the pattern, it just wasn't clear. This is very good and presented in a way even a beginner can understand. I'll be making this for a future trip!
Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow , This is my next project . Thanks 🙏
Just stopped by to visit my favorite sewing teacher. Thanks.

Awesome! Thank you!
I agree. I can't wait until Friday every week to see what you're going to teach us next and get inspired to make for myself. You make it so easy for us. My sister in law is joining me for a challenge to sew your projects. 💖
I'm glad your voice accompanies this video. I was looking for a video just like this. Thanks for sharing
I really like this, there are many possibilities that you can do with the wrap. Like for me I need the wrap a bit more, so wind cannot take it. I found this out the hard way. I had bought a wrap skirt and the wind took it wide open. Now an idea is making a wrap pant. I have to think about that. Thanks for the video! Love all of your videos so very much.
Ohhh, yes please. I would love to see a wrap pants Alisa
Love this project. I am going to make this soon once I get my fabrics. I have actually realised today how many projects I have created because of you, I finished the jogger pants last night and I am absolutely in love with them (wearing them right now :-), I have also made the easy summer top, A line skirt and simple oversized tee in the past. Thank you so much Alisa. next projects will be this skirt and drafting for my kids.
Can you imagine, I am also wearing my joggers as we speak?! lol :) I am so happy that you are making, creating and just finding joy in this. It truly just puts a big smile on my face! Thank you for sharing and being here! Oh, use that A-line skirt for this project - it will save you time ! :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity That's a great coincidence. I have lost some of my baby fat recently so I might strart from the scratch. Thank you 😊
I've been wishing for a quick, no fastener, wrap skirt to take to the beach that coordinates with my tank style swimsuit. This is it! You are my sewing Godmother, my dear! Can't wait to get started!
Thank you for your sewing tips, enthusiasm, and the time you take demonstrating and explaining how to sew. I am just beginning to sew for my daughter to have several nice pieces to wear for high school, and you have given me the encouragement, instructions, and reasonings to make such a beautiful skirt such as you have. I would not change any of your
instructions in making the perfect wrap around skirt. God bless you and your work, and thank you for being an excellent instructor that presents all her work in a genuine, cheerful, and encouraging manner. Keep up the great work!!!!! Your Thoughtful Creativity youtube is awesome!!!! Many applauses! Thank you!!!!
Hello my Dear Sewing Friends - I hope you are doing good and feeling inspired! Have you ever made a wrap skirt?

Wow and wow........fantastic video tutorial, brilliant simply brilliant
I’ve looked at a lot of these tutorials and yours is the clearest. I have saris from my mother-in-law that I will use for this project.
Everything you make is so cute. When I retire, I’m going to binge-watch your videos and make my own patterns.
I made my wrap skirt using this video over the weekend, and I absolutely love it! Thank you for this and all other amazingly detailed videos. Definitely one of the best sewing channels I've come across - please never stop creating.🌷
Perfect to wear on a windy day.
Please teach us how to make a wrap dress 👗. Love! Thank you so much 💞🌷🌸
Hello iris
Thanks a lot for this video! I wasn't sure at first if I would be able to draft a pattern and actually make it right but it worked so well! Your instructions are easy to follow and it's so much better to actually make a pattern based on my own measurements. My skirt is really looking good and I am very proud of myself for making it! I will now be trying to make shorts 😁
I can't wait to m make this skirt. I have a lovey piece of rayon that will be perfect for it.
Thank you for the detailed instructions.
So pretty! I like how the amount of coverage is flexible through your drafting method. I find that a lot of patterns or RTW open up too much, so this is perfect :)
I love the way you explain things! Thank you so much!
Yay, glad it helps!
I can’t wait to make one!! Thank you!
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it. 💖🥰
Have fun and enjoy the process! :)
I did it! It was really easy, i made it with a printed green silk, absolutely love it. Thanks for sharing, I'll check more of your videos for inspo.
More like thoughtful teaching, thank you thank you
I've been wanting more wrap dresses because they're easier to put on when my shoulders hurt. I have one that I can use to make the pattern for the bodice. But the skirt is straight, and I want an a-line. So this is perfect!
Beautiful skirt and I also have seen with the ruffles 🙌🙌👆🥰way to go Alisa
Oh yes, so many possibilities! Ruffle and double ruffles and a pom-pom trim for the beach!
Fantastic tutorial for us newbies, thank you very much!! ❤️
Very clear and useful tutorial.
Even for non EnglishNorth-American/etc. folks!
I think the first part is also useful to help draft other kinds of skirts or even pants.
you explain so well.... thank you.. keeping in my easy sew library. cant wait to try it.
Very nice pattern, thank you. You’re so easy to listen to as well. :)
So simple and so chic. It looks wonderful on you 🥰
Hello there
Happy Easter, miss Christine!
Thoughtful Creativity - CRAFT, SEW, DIY happy Easter to you too luv 🥰
@@imsewblessed1578 same you you my dear .and have a blessed day
I love it. Thank you! This will be my favorite summer pattern.
I love this video! I have been eying those wrap skirts they show on the internet site. But they are so expensive.... Yours looks cute in the flowy fabric and I love the bound opening. That area does get stressed. Great job on this one! ❤️
RIGHT? Sometimes I see the price tag and there's this voice in my head saying "heeeeeeeeeck, no!" :D
Great tutorial❣️thank you❣️
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it. 🌺😍
Glad it was helpful!
This project will be perfect for some cotton lawn I just purchased! Can’t wait to try it!
Hello daxxy
Hi, made one skirt after watching your video. Came out well. Thanks for the video.
Wonderful! Keep on sewing and being creative :)
This is a very useful video. I wasn't able to understand how to attach the binding to the buttonhole. Can you explain again. Thank you.
Beautiful and very helpful..Thanks for your tutorial.
You have the greatest voice!
You make sewing and pattern making look like so--much--fun. And when I go to my freshly oiled vintage sewing machine, I sit and think, "Now what to do?" I am truly a work in progress, but I love your videos. : )
I like the bias tape that you made for the opening. Great idea!
Adorable. I will try making one.
Yay! :)don't forget to watch Members EXtra video for it - some useful information and shortcuts for this project!
Fantastic! I’m going to make this!
Beautiful, love wrap skirts!
This is an awesome video! Looking forward to making this adorable skirt! Thank you so much for the great idea!
Thank you! You're the best.
BRILLIANT!
Very nice job 👏 👍 👌
Love it, love your teaching and personality, going to join tomorrow
I love the direction this channel is going right now.😍🤩 Because before it was a bit, I don't want to say boring, but very basic and I'm more on the more fancy side of sewing. Don't get me wrong, I love this channel and your positive energy and I really appreciate the more and more upcoming topic of dresses and skirts! So thank you so much 🥰👍👏❤️
P.s. I hope it was kinda correct because I'm from Germany and my english is not perfect yet...😬😅😉
Love it, made a wraparound pants and it came really bad. so I will try the skirt. I'm just scare of the hole. hopefully I'll do better
Super helpful video thank you so much!!
I just found your channel and I love it! I am returning to sewing after many years. Your instructions are so clear and simple. I can't wait to try making this skirt as well as other projects you have created! P.S. I love your sign on the wall! Great message!
Wonderful and welcome to the channel! I hope you like it here, we have a wonderful community of people who sew and love creativity. I post videos every Friday - tomorrow is going to be a fun one, see you there :)
Very nice video. Thank you!. Is it possible to say how wide was the fabric? The length was 36 inches and the width was??
Very informative, thank you
Wonderful and a smart project!👍🏼
Awesome video!
I'm so happy I found your channel! Just love it!! 🙂👍❤
You have amazing skill and make it look so easy! 😊😊😊
Oh you make it look so easy! 😊
Thank you so much for this video! 💗 I really enjoyed it and I hope to try it this weekend! 😊
Thank you so much... this is great : )))) Happy Easter to you and your family.
Sheila, likewise - Happy Easter to You!
This is just what I was looking for. Cutting out the skirt as one piece. Thank you.
Does the skirt have gone rounded in the front?
Can it just be kept square?
It can absolutely be square! It can even have a scalloped edge - whatever you decide :)
Here's Members Extra for this skirt! :) th-cam.com/video/GHgncS7ltcY/w-d-xo.html
I too really like your wrap skirt version and bought some fabric that has a burnout pattern. This makes it quite see-through which won't be a problem for the front since it overlaps, but the back section will be. I thought I would add a lining piece for the back section only. The more I think about it, the more I wonder if that may alter how it hangs. Would i be better off just lining all of it? I would appreciate any helpful suggestions.
Thanks!!! I am going to enjoy making this😃💕
Really loving this one, I’m gonna try this on a silky material I think 🥰 thank you Alisa how about a semi flare bias skirt pattern too
So cute! I am going to make one or two 😀
Thank you :)
How many inches of fabric did you over lap in the front?
How do you determine where to make the button hole in the waistband?
Janice, hello there - for the overlap - almost the full front, so that way if the wind blows - it won't open up easily. For the buttonhole - at the side seam :)
Love this 💕
Do you have any videos on learning how to do closures? Thank you so much for all your teach us
Please go to my channel and click on the "video" tab - you will see a ton of sewing how-to videos.
This skirt is beautiful! I was wondering if you could show how to add pockets. I love having my hands in large comfortable couple pockets, as well when I walk my dog i like to carry a couple doggy trash bags for the little deposits that can happen
Hello there, I have many pocket tutorials on the channel - juts go to my channel video tab and take a look
it´s espectacular thank you
Hello Milagros
Like it very much but,do you have a pattern for a narrower waist band
Just make your waistband as wide or as narrow as you would like.
Thanks
Thank you so much!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity you're very welcome 🙏 Much better to have personal tuition than a shop bought pattern. Summer is going to be much prettier this year 😁👍❤️
I am in love with this project and want to start immediately. I am curious though...where did you purchase your roll of paper?
Pamela, hi there, on Amazon, I have a link to the "medical tracing paper" under most of my videos, but not under this one. I usually go through 1-2 of these per year, it is great for pattern drafting.
Can this skirt be made using linen Cotton Launlinen with Linen & Rayon softened fabric?
Is there a way to add pockets to this wrap skirt? Thanks!
Make side seams instead of cutting it all as one piece of fabric and add pockets.
Do you prewash the fabric?
First or second point of this video is the answer to your question - th-cam.com/video/g8IknbTh1pM/w-d-xo.html
What is your first video on drafting. A pattern I’d like to start from the beginning with you
Thanks in advance im in Lille France for three years on a military exchange with my husband and I am doing. A lot more sewing.
Darlene, hello there. Click on my channel name and go to the "Videos" tab on my channel, you can see all tutorials there and decide which one you want to start with.
Hi! Love the wrap skirt😄. Is there a print out for this?
Kimberly, hello there! There sure are :) on Google drive you can either select to view it as thumbnails of PDF file or as a list of PDF files - whichever one is easier for you, the cover picture is like a technical picture of the wrap skirt, not the actual picture of this skirt. :)
Hi. How many yards of material did you use for your skirt ( skirt size ?) & what is that nice material you used ? thx
Everything is mentioned in the video, please watch again.
Found it! The amt was mentioned at the 9min mark. Missed ot the first time & thought it was mentioned at the beginning. I was about to rmv my comment but your comment beat me to it :) Plus the type of material is a "woven, non stretch with a beautiful drape". Are there non-woven ( like ?) ? Didn't realize. I found some plain cotton print. Thx
@@ukelilly no worries, usually "woven" are referred to fabrics without stretch, like cotton, linen, silk and etc. And "knit" to fabrics that have stretch to them due to the way there made by knitting.
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Thank you for clarifying. I plan to make this with a separate slip under. Such a lovely skirt .
The fabric I want to use isn’t big enough for me to cut one continuous piece from the pattern, do you think one side seam would look weird if I were to cut two pieces?
Absolutely go for it :) it can be your center back seam!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity thanks for the encouragement!
Okay, the one thing I didn't see in the video was where to place the belt. I tried centering it in the back, but that left one side too short, so I ended up centering it on one hip so it would wrap around enough to tie on the other hip. I would also recommend cutting the length of the belt twice the full width of the skirt plus 18" on each end for ties.
❤. But I have a high tummy. Waist 36. Hip about 38 - 39.. HELP!!!
thanks ive been looking for how to measure for a wrap skirt. i had a 70s pattern made in 3 pieces that I loved and made several times. My waist is naturally smaller compared to my hips even when young and skinny so Id make in 3 pieces if you have fit issues or a baby tummy as I do now. also the waistband belt had a seam where you overlap so you left openings in that seam. Alway good direction to get real life measurements to patterns to fabric to real life clothing.
Bowl koozy
Not sure how you tie this belt.
Well..I like it..But It is impossible to make this skirt out of 1 yard of fabric.
And... yet I did it. Like I mention at 8:30 in the video, you might need less or more fabric.
Yep, but not in one piece..or if maybe a diagonal cut, but you didn't say that.
@@darinl9405 before saying things like that please watch the video again and pay attention and then also pay attention to the fact the the skirt has no seams to it.
