    This was fun to watch! Thanks for taking us through your process. I know almost nothing about sewing, so seeing the full process was educational. The dress turned out gorgeous! ❤️

    Thanks for watching ❤ Please read👇 FAQ:
    Ques: What are the exact measurements you used for the back piece?
    Ans: The back piece is wider than the front piece because of the train it has. To achieve that, I added 8” to the center back, and 15” to the hem of the back piece.
    Ques: How many yards of fabric did you use to achieve this?
    Ans: I used 3 yards of fabric.

    Please can 2yards be enough for just the skirt?

    • @TheSILEM
      @TheSILEM  2 роки тому

      Yes, but it won’t open much at the bottom. You should use 2 and a half yards, or 3 yards. 3 yards is ideal for this style.

    Lovely, but what I don't understand is how you got a cut together train with it while still retaining the stretch horizontally, cos I tried using 4yrds of velvet but I couldn't get a train out of it without me making the grainline vertically. I hope you understand me

    • @TheSILEM
      @TheSILEM  2 роки тому +3

      I used a velvet fabric that stretches both ways

      Oh okay. I understand now. The knee line is 19” from the waist. So just add 19” to your half length measurement to get your knee line measurement from the shoulder.
