    absolutely fabulous I have been hoping somebody would finally post something like this.
    I have huge shoulders and a smaller body, so if I want something to fit it has to fit shoulders and be altered.
    This saves 95% of the work 😘

    Haha I had a dress like this in the 1970’s when I was in high school!😅 Great idea …there are so many choices for a good price in thrift stores.
    Thank you!❤

    Thank you soo much for this video!! I had an oversized polo I wanted to adjust. I love the simplicity. I didn’t want to put darts and other complicated things. I’m a beginner to making/altering clothes. This is the first adjustment I really like and will wear instead of tossing. Thank you, thank you! 🌺

    Rachel, enjoyed your videos. Very useful and flattering results. Do you have any ideas for re-fashioning mens Hawaiin shirts to fit a woman better?

    Great, thank you from Germany ❤ I was just wondering when you mentioned 1cm seam allowance 🙂

    Would like to learn but not sure how you came up with how you drew the line from the waist did you just guess it or how far out did you go

    • @RefashioningWithRachel

      I traced the shirt that I used as a template adding 1 cm for seam allowance.

    What width / length of a zigzag stitch do you recommend for these knits please 😊

    • @RefashioningWithRachel
      @RefashioningWithRachel  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I have my zigzag stich setting on 2 and 2. It doesn't have to be that wide of a stich, just enough so it can stretch with the fabric.
