Hi Susanne I love watching your videos on sewing, you make it look so easy. I started sewing in May this year.......not liked or worn anything I make, all a waste of money. My question is how do O get your patterns please? Keep showing us how. X

Beautiful work as usual Suzanne. I like the way you tack in your zip, seems better to do wide tacks like you showed. Loved the way you styled it as well.

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much NaturalDane 💕👍💕I love that zip technique, it seems to be fail safe and super quick to do 👍👍👍 autumn wardrobe, here we come eh😍😍😍

Love the skirt and thank's to Your turtorial of how to flounce i've done it for a pencil skirt and for a shirt ❤and i'm in mourning because the textile centre does not deliver outside UK anymore 😥 we don't have that many places to buy fabric from here in Sweden. Back to drawing board and figure out what to do anyway your vlogs are always very inspirational 👍👍👍

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

That's so lovely to hear that you've flounced up a skirt and shirt👍👍👍and such a shame about the Textile Centre 👎we're the same here, not many places to buy fabrics so I'd be in mourning too if one of my online favourites stopped delivering here🙁good luck 🍀🍀🍀with the search and I hope you find a good alternate soon💕💕💕

@PeachyNanaUK 6 лет назад

I love it. Now I’m going to have to go and buy some viscose and have a go!

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

I have been watching you for a few months now and thoroughly enjoy. I have been sewing for more years than I care to think about but have always used patterns with the usual fitting problems, I have decided that I must try to make some blocks, I know that they will take time but it must save a great deal of time in the long run. Have you always had blocks or did you start with patterns? Thanks for the interesting videos.

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Christine Martin, I'm glad you enjoy💕👍💕 Making my own blocks has been the best decision, sewing related, I've made👍👍👍 I started sewing with commercial patterns and did so for about 2 or so years but had the same problems you mention, in terms of fitting, which a lot of the time resulted in me loosing confidence 😞 the time I used to take for fitting is now spent on learning patterning 👍 Good luck with it if you do draft your own blocks, if you're anything like me you'll not look back🍀🍀🍀

@joanevans5411 5 лет назад

Hi Suzanne. What is the circumference of your skirt before the flounce is added. I Have an A-Line skirt block but it seems very flared. It also has darts and a waistband which I don't want! If I ignore the darts and waistband and put interfacing as you have will that work. I'm a rank beginner but love this skirt. Many thanks. Joan

@marymary5494 6 лет назад

Nice! 😊

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Mary Mc💕💕💕

@joanevans5411 6 лет назад

Lovely video. How did you make the pattern for the interfacing please?

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Joan Evans💕👍💕 I traced the skirt pattern front and back along the waist and 5cms down the side seams. I then measured from the waist down 5cms the whole way across.👍👍👍

@PreciousMe 6 лет назад

What a lovely basic skirt Suzanne. Your detailed instructions always makes everything seem so easy to accomplish. You are so talented. Is it that cold already where you are? It's still 95 degrees here in Florida (35 Celsius) Big Hugs

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Eva💕👍💕 as always, that's so very nice of you to say, thank you💕💕💕oh my goodness 35C!!! We are currently at 13C and just got over a storm ⛈ enjoy the warmth and have a fab weekend Eva💕💕💕

@jandimarco3113 6 лет назад

Enjoyable watch as always. Attractive skirt. Would you mind saying where you got your pattern weights from, if you remember, and how many is it wise to have.

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Jan Di Marco💕👍💕I'll try to find the link and put it the description box👍 for now though, they are large washers from B&Q, I can't remember how many are in a pack but I bought 2 and that seems to be sufficient for me so far👍👍👍

@silversagapatterns 5 лет назад

I notice you overlock your edges before sewing the straight stitch, any particular reason you do this? I’m a beginner and I sew pieces together first and overlock later, but always curious to learn new methods! Thank you!

@SewCustom 5 лет назад

It depends what I'm sewing Jessica, for this one it was just easier to finish the edges before stitching the seams. For the hem on these type of garments with these fabric types I like overlocking first as the width of the stitch provides a guide for pressing and bonus if the hem is fluted like this one you can pull on the overlock threads to reduce the width to help the hem fit neatly 👍

@joysweeting-white3559 6 лет назад

How much material did you use I want to buy some but don’t how much to purchase

@SewCustom 6 лет назад

I think I used just over a metre of 60" wide fabric👍👍👍

@janicecoulson5388 5 лет назад

Omg why can't I use a rotary cutter like that!

@SewCustom 5 лет назад

Editing helps😍😍😍

@vickimaiorano5763 6 лет назад

Cute! But you don't need darts?

@raraavis7782 6 лет назад

Vicki Maiorano The curved waistband replaces the darts. Imagine a regular, straight waistband with darts in it...as you sew them closed, you’ll get exactly this curved shape. Works very well, unless maybe with an extremely curvy figure...than regular darts are better, because they reach farther down and allow for a more extreme adjustment.

@vickimaiorano5763 6 лет назад

Thanks Rara. of course the darts were rotated into the A line.
