Welcome to my creative space. My name is Nete and I’m a hobby seamstress from Denmark. On this channel I share my sewing projects and I hope you’ll sew along with me.
During the second lockdown in Copenhagen I began sewing more than I've previously done and also began sewing more everyday style clothing. I used to sew when I had an occasion for it, like parties or events. I wish I could say I always love the proces of creating, but I have to many failed projects in my past. I learned from all of them and there are fewer of them now. So I most often love the proces. There is nothing better than the moment you try on the finished garment and it's even better than you imagined. I hope to share all those moments with you, both the failed and the best ones.
It looks so pretty! I wanna follow the tutorial too! If you don’t mind me asking, did you sew the panels together at the end ? Did you do that for each layer ? 😶
Happy to hear you like it! If you choose a fabric like chiffon, then melting the edges is enough. I would also assume you could use tulle without hemming (and melting)
В русской школе на сборку собирают только короткие рюши на трусиках, а длинные слои юбки собирают в двойные складки с видимой частью складки в 1 см. Тогда юбка держит форму гораздо лучше и красивее
Sorry but I don't understand very well How are you doing the waistband, probably because I don't speak English, but how do you do the dots part? And how did you divide that? I hope you can understand me I'm trying my best with my English
I think it is possibly to learn on your own, friends of mine have, but it does require patience and not being too hard on yourself :) you can always practice to begin with by drawing patterns on a piece of paper and then tracing them on the machine, it’ll help you learn how to guide the fabric, without actually using fabric
So happy that you liked the video! I actually made a lot of these for a fair to raise money, so can highly recommend, even if the first bag is more fun to sew than the twentieth :)
Measurements are shown at 5:30; "panels" = width of the fabric, which for her was 150cm (60") Adding all of it together is 10.195 meters of 150cm width tulle (11.15 yards of 60" width)
Hi, very nice tutu. I am not sure I understood everything correctly : I wonder why do you cut 4 panels, then sew them together (for the top layer f.i.) and not use one piece of fabric (4 pannels wide). As I want to translate your video for à none speaking english friend who watts to do thé same nice tutu.
I did it to save fabric, the length of my panels did not match with the width of my fabric, so I would be wasting a lot of fabric doing it the other way. There’s not other reason why, so you can definitely cut one piece of fabric for each layer :)
Hi beautiful tutu and great tutorial! I'm going to sew also one for me :) I wanted to ask - when you were talking about panels I understand that you have sew 12 of them and on the chart there is description of 11 parts?
I added a top layer in a softer tulle, with the same amount of panels as the top stiff tulle layer, so the description for the longest layer is the same for the softer layer. Hope you have fun making your own tutu! 🤩
Lovely long tutu 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Never give up dancing it’s an underrated hobby for adults; dancers understand how difficult musicality, coordination & precise ballet is. People who criticize non-professionals instead of providing helpful feedback/info. show character flaws. I always wanted to sew & I’m trying to learn-quite sure my 1st project will turn out to be rubbish, however I’ll probably be proud of myself.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! 💗 you should be proud of your first project! Even if it doesn’t turn out exactly like you want, then you’ll definitely learn from it and hopefully also have fun
