    I made this skirt, with slight modifications (a little longer, made the ruffles shorter, made the waistband from the skirt itself lol) and it turned out nice! I’m a complete beginner so this is a really great tutorial so thank you.

      when I think of pockets and gothic lolita I can't help but think of these nicely black laced edges being on the pockets with cute buttons to button the pockets up

    I finally finished the skirt and I absolutely LOVE IT!!! I made it with a normal waist band instead of the elastic since I didn't really like how the skirt was gathered with the elastic (sewing in the zipper was an actual nightmare, I don't recommend it at all😭) and I made a detachable bow to hide the top part of the zipper

    Hey, I love this tutorial and would love to make this skirt one day. But I'm having a hard time figuring out how much fabric I'd need. Could you please tell me how to most easily determine this?

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  6 років тому +6

      I think I got three yards, but didn't use all of it. The main part of the skirt should be three times your waist measurement. I would say 1.5X your waist for the main part, plus a yard or so for the frills and bows

      @@Zaolan123 when you made the frills, how much fabric did you use? I got 5 yards and I seemed to be running short - what could I use as a solution?

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  5 років тому +2

      Carakia Darkheart i honestly don’t remember the exact amount of fabric it used, but if it’s for cost oh could use broadcloth in the same color instead of cotton.

    Hi there! I know you might not see this- but I was wanting to make my own dress to go with a new petticoat I got. I haven’t sewn before but am getting help from someone who has seen dresses before. Do you think this would be easy enough for me to try? By the way, amazing video!

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  4 роки тому +1

      Hello! Overall, the skirt is mostly just a bunch or rectangles gathered and put together, so I don't think it'll be too hard, especially if you've got help! ^.^

  • @lissaapple1872
    @lissaapple1872 4 роки тому +2

    I'm a little confused about the ruffles. It says 6x waist measurement (2x waist measurement) in the video. Does that mean i have to do 6 strips of fabric that are 2 times my waist measurement 😅? Love your video by the way ❤️

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  4 роки тому +6

      It's been a while since I made this, but I'm pretty sure it was meant to be 6x the waist measurement or 2x the skirt piece (so twice the length of the piece that is 3x the waist), if that makes sense.
      Sorry, I know it's a little hard to follow.

    @Zaolan did you write the measurements right? Because I ended up with a 7ft rectangle and I don’t feel that right

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  5 років тому +1

      I think so. The main skirt piece gets gathered at the top to the right size

    Not sure if you will respond to this but i started this skirt and i realized i bought 1 inch elastic instead of 3/4 could i still use it?

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  2 роки тому

      Sorry for the delayed response! 3/4" elastic would definitely work! If you're worried about the skirt being too heavy for the elastic you could make two channels (same idea but make a 1.5" tube and then put a seam in the center to make two .75" channels) for extra stability.

    Okay so for the rolled hem part, do I just leave the loop as the loop and sew over bother layers?

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  5 років тому +1

      Carakia Darkheart do you mean when you hem the bottom of the pieces? Fold the raw edge over twice and stitch it down all the way around the loop

      Zaolan oh, okay, gotcha

    • @va-3

      @@Zaolan123 wait just have one more question - so all around the whole loop so its kind of like a closed off rectangle?

    • @Zaolan123
      @Zaolan123  5 років тому

      Carakia Darkheart essentially, Yeah. So you close the rectangle into one big loop, pick whichever side is going to be the bottom, and roll hem that one. The other side can stay raw until the waistband goes on
