How would you style this skirt? Big pockets or a lovely print?
Thank you so much! I'm very much a beginner, but I managed to make a floor-length edwardian style skirt using this tutorial for a school project :)
That’s amazing! I’m glad I could be of help, hope you got a good mark and more importantly are happy with it!
So easy to understand, thanks for sharing hun 💕

Waist + 1.5 inch divided by 6. 8 inches down . Hip + 1.5 inch divided by 6. Curve waist and hem. I think I got it ✂️
great!

You’re so welcome! You definitely can!
Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Excellent video. Crystal clear explanation and demonstration. Can't wait to get started.
Shouldn't the hip measurement be 14 not 18....80+4 = 84/6= 14? I'm not picking faults I'm just nervous about getting it wrong as it's my first time
Hi Drew, glad you liked it. Regarding the the hip measurement, you’re of course right about my calculations being wrong- in a very tactful manner. I made this a while ago, so I’m not a 100% sure, but I think the 18 might be me adding a bit more flare.
So the 14cm would be the minimum you want ( very little ease), but I would always make it a big bigger as I find it more flattering. If you’re on Instagram, I’d love to see it. Feel free to dm me if you have any questions. It’s charlotta_patterncuttingschool
I love this. So easy to follow. Thanks
You’re so welcome!
thanks very much
You're welcome!
I would love to know how to do this skirt with an waist band?!
This is an absolutely amazing tutorial, I am a beginner in sewing and this is so easy to understand even for an beginner like me. Thank you so much! ❤️🌿
You’re so welcome! You could try by adding a straight piece of fabric to the top. If it doesn’t sit flat, pinch out the excess and mark it on your pattern. You can cut and glue it to end up with a slightly curved waistband pattern. Don’t forget to fuse/interface it.
I will try it.
Great!
Great tutorial. So simple and to the point. But can you explain how to add more flare? Elastic waist instead of zipper?
You’re so welcome! For more flair you make the panels wider at the bottom when you draft it
And for an elastic waist you need to make the waist at least big enough to go on over your hips, and add a channel (waistband) at the top to thread the elastic through
Thanks. This method is very easy to understand.
You’re so welcome!
SO that's how you do the bottom curve!!!
Or at least how I do it! Glad you found it helpful!
I was also sooooo happy to see that!
Thank you so easy to understand
You’re so welcome! Glad you found it helpful
Mam very easy illustration thanks
You’re so welcome!
Thank you 🙏🏾
You’re welcome!
Thank you.. I'm busy cutting out a long skirt..
Fantastic! So nice you found it helpful!
Amo seus vídeos 🇧🇷
Thank you!
This method could be used for 4 panels, right? Just divide by 4? I’m recreating a 1940s v-neck dolman-sleeved dress with a 4 panel skirt with topstitched pockets. I’m thinking this will work well. Thanks for all the great tutorials.
Hi Barbie, yes you can use exactly the same method if it has 4 panels at the front and 4 at the back (so 8 overall). If there are only 4 panels in the whole skirt, I think it would still work with a flared skirt, but for a more A-line skirt you might have to add some shaping into the top part.
So awesome and clear! It needs a zipper, then, right?
Glad you liked it! Yes it does need a side seem zipper or your can split one panel in half ( add seam allowance on both sides of the split) for a CB zip
Many thanks
You’re so welcome!
I'm confused by the bottom "curve." I get how you found the right angles at the side, and how if you followed their trajectories to connect them you could form a curve. But that's not what you did - I just see three straight lines (center and each side). Is it mostly a straight line, just with a tiny bit of curve at each side (like the curve turns into a straight line at the point where each side line intersects with the center line?) Thank you for the video!
Hello, with the hemline you really always want a as shallow as possible curve, so on my slightly flared piece it nearly looks straight, but on a more flared pattern you might more of a curve. If you curve your hem too much you'll get a scalloped look, so I'm trying to keep it as straight as possible, but also connect the three right angles with a smooth line, hence a very shallow curve. It's a bit like drawing a curve out of lots of straight lines. I hope this makes sense
@@charlotta_patterncuttingschool Makes perfect sense, thank you so much!
This channel is so under-viewed!
Thank you so much! I think so too, but I might be prejudiced!
Hi. May I know where did you purchase the metric ruler? Is it available online?
Thanks
Hello, of course. It’s called a pattern master. I got mine from Morplan, but lots of other shops sell it too.
Thank you, may I ask about the closure? I wonder how I could put in a zipper without splitting a panel in half and ruining the simmetry
Hello Silvia, I’m actually going to do a livestream for this skirt this Thursday and will cover zippers then. It’ll be on at 1.30pm U.K. time.

Merci beaucoup mais comment vous la cousez ? Mettez vous une fermeture éclair sur le côté ? Derrière! Mettez vous une ceinture ? Merci
Please have a look at my newest video, I cover it: th-cam.com/users/liveDYeY3ZSDwOk?si=y__1UNko2o1_l2xc
how did u add that pocket on the skirt ?
Hello, I’ve put the pattern pieces for the skirt on my Instagram and the full drafting tutorial for the pocket is on my patreon.
I saw saw a similar comment like this, but if I want 8 panels, I can just do the same thing but divide by 8?
Exactly! In theory you can divide by however many panels you want.
How much width we have to take on the paper?
It depends how flared you want your skirt! I would make it at least a third bigger than your waist
If u want to put a zip in the middle help pl
You can put an extra seam in
How do we fold the fabric?🤔
Fold in half and then into thirds! or just a concertina as it's symmetric
@@charlotta_patterncuttingschool I’ll google the last part. Thank you for responding
