I will agree that the camera work is quite good. However there is a little more to sewing a bias skirt. Among other things. Handle your fabric as little as possible so that the fabric does not get distorted as it often does ion a bias cut. Understitch the fabric to the elastic with a wide zig zag. DON'T let the fabric hang down while you are sewing. And most importantly, before you hem, hang the skirt overnight to let the bias parts stretch. Even up the hem after 24 hours and then hem, as explained. If you hem too early you will end up with a very wonky hem.
Thank you for sharing your experience here and elegantly too. God bless you.
That's a good tip. I would do two stitches on the sides to give room for those who gain weight! That's the way sewing was done couple of decades ago. Also I would do a half an inch hem instead of narrow him. This type of sewing started with fast and cheap fashion to save fabric.
This is one of the best sewing videos. It’s straightforward, and the camera angles let us see the full skirt! I’ve been scrolling through so many videos that are too zoomed in, or too wordy
thank you so much - I'm very glad you enjoyed the video ❤
Thank you very much. Your instructions were very clear; and your voice is very soothing. God bless you!
I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the video! Thank you for your compliment - blessings to you as well! 🥰🥰
beautiful skirt !!
Lovely! So simple but so versatile!
Thank you Melissa! I agree ❤️
Any tips which needle I should use when sewing elastic to satin fabric? Do I go for stretch or microtex needle?
Hi! It shows on the instructions that it's for a knit fabric.
can this also be used for woven fabric?
Beautiful and elegant!!💖Can I sew the elastic with just straight stitch?
Hello, how do you keep the elastic band down?
Because mine is pointing out/up
after i pressed it.? 😊
thank you so much 🏠❤️
What is the measurement of elastic?? Is it same as waist measurement ??
Yes, that's right!
hi! is it the waist measurement plus the ease indicated on the pattern? or just the waist measurement without ease?
I purchased the pattern and I'm now working on it.

Hi! I tried making the dress and i have issues with zipper bulge. Can you please provide any suggestions for getting rid of it? Would be really helpful!!! ❤️❤️
Hi! This is a skirt with no zipper, can you clarify what I can help you with? ❤️
Hi, would there be any way to alter this so the waist has a zipper instead of an elastic band?
How do I get the patterns
could you make this without a sewing machine?
So modest and feminine. Definitely will try and do this
Thank you Maloh ❤️ I'm so glad this inspired you to make it :)
Minunat!
OK tes!
