Thank you so much! ☺️ Sorry if you felt the pace a bit too fast. Does slowing down the video in the settings help? Or is there a part in particular I could help with?
Fantastic and easy to follow along with tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing this. Also, I just want to say,.......please tell that kitty that I love them and give them extra skritches from me. Thank you. I will be receiving the fabric I ordered in a couple of weeks and look forward to attempting to make this skirt.
I'm so glad you found this easy to follow. What fabric did you order? Poppy says thank you for the fusses and thanks you for recognising her as the rightful star of the video.
@@TheUnevenStitch I got some Halloween fabric that's these beautiful skulls and roses! It's all black and grey, but I'm going to dye the roses different shades of red.
Thank you so much for this easy to understand vid. I will be making a poodle skirt for a cosplay this year, and this vid has given me confidence that i can do it. This will be my first ever piece of clothing. I usually make plushies.
The waistband was going to be the death of me! I sewed it FIVE TIMES until I got in on right, last time I sewed it in the front fully opened backwards, turned it around and top stitched it so the back is on properly I swear I almost gave up 😂
Figuring out the pockets threw me for a loop at first because I didn't know if you were pinning the pockets on on the "wrong" side. It was hard to tell for me because tbe fabric was a solid color... I figured it out though and was soooo happy!
Hello! Thanks so much for this tutorial I'm going to be using it soon, just ordering my fabric now, the website is useful and says I need fabric that is 150cm across but not the length 😂 I'm thinking of getting 3 meters just to be safe, do you think this would be enough? Cheers 😊
That's so exciting to hear! 3m would be more than enough. I think I had 2m of the fabric. I always tend to buy more than I need though as 1) I'm overly cautious 2) What if I go wrong??? (I think this is the same mentality that makes me pack 12 pairs of pants for a three day trip- just in case!) and 3) If you have leftover fabric you have more fabric to make more things 😆 Hope this response got to you in time. Keep me posted on how it goes!
It definitely would but you'd need to make the waistband a little wider to use as your starting measurement so it could stretch as you take it on and off. I recommend using your hip circumference rather than waist. I do this exact process in my bedsheet transformation video if you'd like to see (just with a half circle skirt rather than a full one). Zips are definitely a bit scary and fiddly I agree. I get my students at school to practice on offcuts of fabric before moving onto the real thing. Hope this helps!
Hi so I don’t know if you’ll see this but I’m working on a skirt for a bigger gal and the circumference of the skirt when all stitched up is much larger than the waist band, Do I just need to gather the skirt?
Does the waistband fit or is that too small? If too small make another waistband that will fit the skirt and the wearer. If it's just the skirt that's the issue I'd suggest two options: 1. If you don't mind adding volume at the waist then gathers or pleats would work. Darts might also be a shout if it wouldn't effect how the skirt fits over the tummy. 2. If you don't want more volume at the waistband- you could just move one of the side seams in until the waist is the right circumference. It would mean resetting the pocket but it's probably less work than spacing out pleats or gathers. Hope this helps!
