There are new ways too and not the common ones you have already seen me sew before, I hope you enjoy and in time have your faves like I do :) Some of these methods work for both woven and knit and others only for woven.

Karina you have really outdone yourself with this one. it takes a level of expertise to make a masterclass for elastic waistbands and not have the content sound like bullshit. I really learned a lot. GIRL... YOU DID THAT!!! BRAVO!!!

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Well I try not to make 💩 type of content lol

@lisavcrawford Месяц назад

Thanks Karina, this was very helpful.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

@janecard2060 2 месяца назад

This is one of the most brilliant videos on waistbands on RU-vid. Amazing!! Thank you so much.

@donnaschindlbeck7457 6 месяцев назад

Karina, you can’t believe how helpful videos like this are! This is definitely a saved one😊. Thank you so much for taking the time to put these together for our future reference ❤️

@lilagaddis 3 месяца назад

Question: What stitch length do you use when topstitching the elastic waistbands? Does a longer stitch length prevent some of the stretching? Thank you so much for your excellent instructional videos. I've learned so much from you. And I look forward to your bright sunny attitude! You're such a breath of fresh air! Thank you, again, Karina.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 3 месяца назад

@@lilagaddis I use 3.0 and no, it does not prevent the stretching because you are already stretching the elastic manually to its max when sewing.

@pavlal.4552 3 месяца назад

You are an absolutely amazing teacher, thank you so so much. I didn't even know that was so many different techniques.😊

Thank you so much for the helpful video. Not only you show how, you also explain why which I find most valuable. #3 method was just what I needed for my project.

@robynlaszlo6128 6 месяцев назад

Absolutely brilliant love your classes you are amazing so easy to follow thank you😊😊😊

I have no waist to speak of and I find my most comfortable and best fitting on my body is a cut-on waist band which has ejastic attached before folding to the inside and securing jwith a few stitches at the seams.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 4 месяца назад

I know lots of people like that. I personally don’t like sewing the edge of the fabric to the elastic because that bulk rubs on my skin and I find it terribly uncomfortable.

@carolmaclean5421 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for adding so much joy in my day! Your videos are brilliantly executed and thoughtful; considering all that one might run into while following along. I am finishing the crescendo jeans and I did not think they would be wearable on the first pass. Thanks to you they fit perfectly and I feel great in them.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 5 месяцев назад

Yay! It’s great to know your jeans made you happy!

@angiehomeschoolmom3269 6 месяцев назад

Very helpful! Thank you! I especially appreciated you describing your stitch lengths for the zigzags! Also showing all the detailed processes for us "newbies" who don't naturally know what all the steps are for and WHY! So important for a video that is meant to teach their audience! Bravo! I subscribed to your channel for that reason!

@Kitasews 6 месяцев назад

Excellent video! Very detailed instructions! So many options! Thanks for sharing your sewing knowledge I really appreciate it and I always learn so much from your videos.

@bonniemurphy1057 6 месяцев назад

Excellent tutorial! I learned so much.....your explanation for why you are doing everything is very helpful. Thank You!

@marlenede-abel1336 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for such clear examples - If I go to make something I always look to see if you have a video on it. Your instructions and your sewing techniques are so detailed and professional looking at the end. Your videos are so appreciated especially as I live in a region in Australia and we do not have any sewing groups or classes so I have no one to ask or any shop with sewing classes.

@marathorne6821 6 месяцев назад

I never guessed there were so many methods for sewing an elasticated waistband! I prefer to have the edges inside the waistband rather than outside at the bottom. If I do it that way for any reason, I tend to do a line of edge stitching just below the waistband to keep it pointing down. As with all sewing techniques, I guess it's a case of personal preference. I loved it when you said "sewing is supposed to be enjoyable so do what makes you happy" - amen to that! 😊

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

The best thing about sewing are the options. So many ways to do things and it should be fun :)

@angelrose7906 5 месяцев назад

I never knew there was so many ways of sewing elastic waistbands. I definitely won't be trying the 5th method. I can see it causing all types of problems for me. Thanks for the video. Very informative and useful.

@christinadore9197 6 месяцев назад

Really useful video. I learnt a lot, thank you. Looking forward to tomorrow's release.

@deb.m.7458 6 месяцев назад

Enjoyed watching the Master Class on Elastication. The No. 4 technique is the one I started sewing with and it’s the only one that I use. Must be old age - hate change. Thank you for the compilation.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

I love that one for heavier fabrics and use it a lot. It all depends on the fabric in the end. I also like sticking with what works and is enjoyable.

@moyralouise7123 6 месяцев назад

I did a waist band today like the red fabric example, making the Pattern Emporium swing shorts. It worked well but find your preferred method easier 😊

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Yep, Pattern emporium usually has the waistbands done with that method but I’ve seen it on other brands too :)

@suek7086 6 месяцев назад

I learned to do the first method when I first began to sew. I’m going to try some of the other methods.

@gerriebell2128 6 месяцев назад

I saw the hint about the Crescendo Jeans last week in an email and then a video, both from Love Notions, and I’m totally looking forward to the release. Thank you for including them in this waistband class. This video was very helpful! Like you, I like the first method the best.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Me too :)

@equus22 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! I wish I had watched this before sewing the waistband on the Mt. View jeans! Now I know a better way to do it.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

I use method 4 for the Mountain view jeans :)

@monicavanhuystee2634 6 месяцев назад

Really nice looking jeans Karina! With respect to your elastic waistband techniques, I noticed that you did not include the simplest one of all-- the extended garment and then just rolling it under and stitching and I wondered why? I don't think it is more bulky, but perhaps because you don't need a separate piece? I'd be curious as to your answer.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Because what you are describing is not a separate waistband and that was the goal of this video. What you describe involves the pattern maker making the rise longer, changing the shape on the top. It’s not as simple as doing that on any garment because the waistband is included in the total rise of pants/shorts and even the placement of the waist in a skirt.

@findingthatperfectspot4692 6 месяцев назад

This is extremely helpful. I'm not sure I entirely understand your objections against the Icaria pants method, but everything else was very clear. Thank you!

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Stretching the elastic under the waistband was super fiddly…. The footage is a snippet, it took ages. The second stage of folding it over also took longer than a waistband should.

@findingthatperfectspot4692 6 месяцев назад

I understand... Thanks for the explanation! @LiftingPinsandNeedles

@karenbensdon4643 6 месяцев назад

Wow! Great video!!!!! Learned so much.

@aidal.arnaldy4726 6 месяцев назад

I love the second technique! Im trying it next time .Thank you for this tutorial!

@prosie1968 6 месяцев назад

This is just perfect, I’m in the middle of some self drafted pants to which I’m adding an elastic waistband. I agree with your assessment. I also have made a band where the waistband was incorporated into the rise of the pants then did the sewn/folded version which was very easy for a simple pant.

@glendavizecky7581 6 месяцев назад

I agree #5 is a pain to sew. I don't like that method at all. Thank you for sharing all these methods of attaching the waistbands.

@bottle-capjack1778 6 месяцев назад

Nice video. I have a question for you about elastic. I am in search of good quality elastic. I use most of the technics that you demonstrate however, lately I find that the elastic is not of good quality and by the time I complete the elasticated waistband it is too big. It appears that the extra stitching to stop the elastic from rolling stretches the elastic out of shape. Would be nice to know your thoughts.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Yes, top stitching does make it end up larger than the original length. If I know I’ll be topstitching, I’ll make it 4” smaller than my waist.

@gerriebell2128 6 месяцев назад

Oh yes, I’ll have to look at the description box, because I want to know what skirt pattern(s) you used in the samples.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Allegro bottoms :)

@joanneklug7665 6 месяцев назад

Is there an preference on the type of elastic used when doing the topstitching?

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

Usually the ones that roll, twist and turn inside. There are sturdier non roll elastics that don’t need it.

@linday3157 4 месяца назад

I just found your videos and love the information about them. Where did you buy the stretch blue denim fabric?? Love that fabric.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 4 месяца назад

I buy all my fabric in Brazil in actual shops, so I don-t have links for any of them.

@linday3157 4 месяца назад

Thank you.

@cleocarter7228 6 месяцев назад

45:52 This is a very helpful video, Karina. 1. I’d like to see tips for inserting elastic in back waistband only. 2. Have you seen the instructions for the Style Falcon Straight A’s Skirt? It has a yoke and hidden elastic waist where the elastic is sewn between the yoke facing seam allowances. A bit fiddly but looks great! The yoke seam pockets are a nice feature, too. I’d love to see your review of this skirt.

@LiftingPinsandNeedles 6 месяцев назад

I gave a video about flat front elasticated back waistbands already here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HtRcRiPl70Q.htmlsi=Z1rhxNQyz17hciuF I really can’t take pattern requests. It’s in my channel guidelines if you look. Choosing a pattern ends up being super complex for me.
