Omg so helpful! I just tailored a shirt for the first time and it turned out great thanks to you tutorial! I was so scared i was gonna ruin my shirt but everything went well :)
I'm glad your first tailoring was a success!
as someone whose busy and butt area is bigger than my waist. I'm constantly having to tuck the waist on dresses and the sorts and it's nice for once to see al alteration video that doesn't require you to have a sewing machine. I wish more UA-camrs kept that in mind and showed both the machine and hand sewing options
I'm happy to hear that this is helpful to you. I try my best to show options because I know not everyone has access to a sewing machine.
SAME GIRL😭 it feels like such a weird flex that i have wide hips n ass w a small waist but i wish dresses fit me better
What is the tool you used to mark the curve? That thing that looks like a ruler but is curved. Thx!
It is called a styling ruler or a french curve I hope that helps.
@@sewaldodiy Where can I buy one? I havent seen anything big like this. Looks useful!
Do you have to cut off excess fabric after sewing, though? I ask, because my weight fluctuates and cutting fabric seems like a permanent solution for a temporary issue (at least for me) sometimes.
You don't have to cut it that way you can adjust it.
@@sewaldodiy Thanks!
THIS WAS SO HELPFUL!!! You did a FANTASTIC job!!! ❤
I’m so happy! 💕
I’ve never done this before- should the thread go through both ends of the fabric (Like through the front side and back)? Or just the one side that is marked?
Yes, you have to sew it through two layers of fabrics.
Wow 🤩 did I you make this dress? Or did you make a similar one? Wow 😮
No, I bought this dress from Banana Republic but I have one that is very similar diy dress click here ua-cam.com/video/PV-Qq4m3b_Y/v-deo.html

I love black.❤️
Me too, it's my go to when I don't know what to wear!
😊
Wooo how amazing !
Thank you dear!
Can someone please explain to me why, if you cut the fabric off, there will be no holes???
There will be no holes because the seams are stitched shut. If you are hand sewing be sure that the stitches are close to each other and no gaps.
how do you close it ?
It's a pull over dress and it's a jersey knit material.
Does anyone know what hand sewing method she’s doing to cinch I don’t have a sewing machine 🥹ty in advance
I don't know what it's called but it a straight stitch with a back stitch combo to fill in the gaps.
@@sewaldodiy ok tysm 🤍🤍
It is called an even backstitch and is the hand facsimile of machine stitching. I prefer it in certain situations because I feel I have more control than I would have using a machine.
@@alzorama2876 Thank you now I know what it's called. I used to call it backstitch. My mom love this stitch too her hand sewing is amazing it looks like she used a machine.
@@sewaldodiy You are so welcome! Sometimes I just can't be bothered to set up the machine and this stitch works very well. I admit that I really enjoy trying to make the stitches as perfect as possible, although sometimes I don't do it so well.
Actually, you are right in calling it a backstitch, except, technically, a backstitch is just one stitch at the end of a row of stitching and is put there to secure a row of hand stitching. The even backstitch is where the entire seam is done with backstitches, as you did in this video. There is also an uneven backstitch which leaves spaces between the stitches.
And I love your video instruction! You are a very good seamstress.
Great
Thanks dear!
The only issue is my dress isnt stretchy so how else can i tighten it
You can use the same technique as long as it has a zip on the back it should be fine.
@@sewaldodiy it doesn't have a zipper, its a satin dress
@@user-or4ud6ow9w That is a problem because if you tighten it on the sides it will be impossible to get in and out of the dress.
@@sewaldodiy yea i think i will try and find a ribbon and tie it
@@user-or4ud6ow9w That sounds like a brilliant idea!
Forget the dress, she's cute...lol
Thank you!
I see no difference
Yes it was a subtle side seams alterations.
