2:37 to make it easier, its literally just your waist measurement divided by 6.284. Thats all you need.
You're welcome
Yay she hearted this!! Im happy
are you really sure it's a right calculation? because I don't want to cut my fabric broken for nothing 😉 but it seems like a very good calculation!
does it work with centimeters the same way?
@@matea2787 yes it does :)
thank you so much, that's made it so much more simple. I have dyscalculia which is basically maths dyslexia, so I always get confused when there's too many numbers to deal with.
i guess my math teacher was right when he said you will find maths in everything
Yep your maths teacher was right 💪
Haha
hhhhh yeah 😅😅😅
😀😀😀😀
welp rip.
I'm still in school and you explained the eequations needed for circumference and radius better than my maths teacher!! well done cool video ^_^
HI ARMY💜💜
sumaiyah miah OMG thank you I was going crazy over here lol
Ur out of school now... Right?
Lol
I’ve Been up all night it’s 7am in South Africa and I have an event tomorrow. for my entire dress I used your patterns alone and you’ve done more for me than my college teachers. God bless you. Patterns is very tricky🤧
*Full Instructions*
_You will need:_
( 1:06 ) Waist measurement
Length you want the skirt to be
( 1:19 ) Pattern Master
Marker pen
Scissors
Tape measure
Pattern paper
Long ruler
_Useful definitions:_
( 1:34 ) Circumference: the enclosing boundary of a curved geometric figure, especially a *circle*
Radius: Straight line from the centre to the *circumference* of a circle or sphere
[diagram on screen]
_Calculating the radius of your waist:_
( 1:58 ) Waist measurement/6.284 = radius of waist
_Method:_
1. ( 2:46 ) Lay out (enough) pattern paper, folded in half
2. ( 3:11 ) Fold paper in half again, so it’s in quarters. Make sure the edges are as straight as possible
3. ( 3:21 ) Mark the radius along the edge of the *folded* corner, not the open corner. Mark it at the edge, the middle, and the last edge, so it’s a curve. You might want to see the demonstration for some of these
4. ( 3:48 ) Connect the dots so it’s a smooth curve, but with a straight edge at the very end. Label this as your waistline
5. ( 4:20 ) Mark the skirt length the same way you marked the waist measurement, but with more dots in between (ie not just edge, centre, edge).
6. ( 4:48 )Connect the dots, with the straight final edge, and label
7. ( 5:26 ) Mark your seam allowance for both the waist and the hem
8. ( 5:51 ) Cut out the smaller waist circle and then the full length of the skirt
9. ( 6:09 ) Open it to double check that it looks right and the waist is correct
10. ( 6:22 ) Spread it out completely. You can throw away the corner that you cut out. You now have your pattern piece
11. ( 6:37 ) This pattern, if cut correctly on the fold, only needs a piece of elastic sewn at the waist. If you would like to add a zip, cut up the circle from the outer circumference to the waist and measure seam allowance for a zip. Visual at ( 6:55 )
12. ( 6:48 ) Adding your waistband. Cut a strip of pattern paper the length of your waist measurement and whatever width you would like it to be
13. ( 7:04 ) If you want to box-pleat your skirt (images at 7:06 ) you have to cut the pattern open. This needs a whole new video however (ua-cam.com/video/3I-TLlkM4QM/v-deo.html)
14. ( 7:23 ) Outro. This pattern can be used for flounced/flared sleeves or trousers, long maxi skirts, something fun with tulle, etc etc. It is in general very versatile
15. Basic step-by-step guide: shop.kimdave.com/collections/makers-corner/products/basic-skirt-pattern-guide
Thank you! This helps a lot
You’re the GOAT for these time stamps
I usually love your tutorials but "if you do a little multiplications/ division" without explaining was confusing. For everyone lost do 30 ÷ 6.28= 4.77 round up 4.78
aiMislit but why do we devised it by 6.28?
@@nevegriffin9188 Because the circumference of a circle = 2 * pi * radius. She knows the circumference of her waist is 30. Pi is 3.14. 2 times 3.14 = 6.28.
You divide by 6.28 to get the radius.
@@nevegriffin9188 it's probably for the circumference; a whole circle equals 2π which is 2 x 3,141 592 653 = around 6.28
The Adventures of Mi Do we have to round up our radius?
Oh my gosh”
To get it completely round circle ⭕️ divide your waist into 6
And to get a half circle divide into 3 that’s all.
Thank you
For more precision use 6.28 and 3.14 respectively
Thank you for your simplicity. All those pi calculations is beyond my pay grade. :) Otherwise, this is an easy pattern. Again, thank you for your comment.
Me who is just trying to make a cosplay👁👄👁
@@ALEXXX_-_ same lmao
I just got my first sewing machine for Christmas & I can't wait to get started!!! I'm so excited to make my first thing and this looks like I'll get to try to do a bunch of techniques in one project!!!
How's your journey into sewing going now?
@bobbiehobbs3692
Thank you! It’s a struggle finding skirts that fit my style! Finally I can make my own with your help! ❤️
Execution, illustration,print and narrative of technique is excellent! Best video by far for a full circle skirt! I think your techniques are the “go to” when searching for instruction of a pattern. Keep those tutorials coming.
I love this channel! I used to sew with my nan as a kid, I'm 20 now and don't get to see her a lot, I've loved picking up sewing again and am slowly moving from patterns to self designed pieces and this is so useful! can't wait to have a go at my own dress!
I like your accent :D
i m l i b e r i a n
@@amandarama3314 *whispers* oh my bad. i like your accent where you from?
Amandarama **oh sorry i like your accent where u from**
And it's a clear accent
woow kim I really enjoy watching your tutorials, im a fashion student and when I don't understand something in class I just come to your channel and you actually explain it better or should I say in simpler terms. love you
I love it. Excellent job the calculation was easily understood. Yes I would really love to see how you calculated the box pleated circle skirt, and also how to calculate the amount of fabric needed and also for knife and inverted pleats too.( I guess this is too much to ask - smile)
Irene Calvert.
Aaaaa tysm!! I got a sewing machine for my b-day and I've been wanting to make a skirt for a cosplay tysm! the math totally went over my head (all math for does that 4 me lol) but I still got a pretty good result in the end! Again tysm!
I Love circle skirts. It was one of the first things I made for my youngest. xx
It is so easy to make I tell you 👌😍
Live, Love & Learn Naturally
I really enjoyed this tutorial thanks a lot. what do I do to really learn more because I'm just a beginner
Thank you! I am just getting in to sewing and I loved this video. I love how you described the math behind making the pattern.
Your tutorial is delightful! Thanks so much for the clear explanation. I’m a new subscriber today!
Love your teaching is easy to understand clear instructions, plus with diagrams illustrating these are really helpful to me.
All along many videos I have not been able understand it until I have turned on into yours.
You have shown there many different styles one could create using this pattern these are so helpful especially to me.
I do love the make up and I like the eye shadow you apply on, you look lovely with the soft features that you have.
My hobby is sewing I do enjoy it when the finished product fit me nicely.
I am onto my sewing pattern of my dress with circular sleeve and half circular skirt, will follow up from your teaching.
Thanks for your time and I do appreciated very much.

Your explanation is really clear. Well done Priscilia. Made it easy for newbies like me to understand (i was inspired to make a skirt for my god-daughter about 2hours ago). Will be following your tips for sure, and will be watching your other videos as well. ❤
You explained this very clearly and slowly. This is a simple pattern but from a total beginner perspective (and someone who is rather nervous about doing new things) it's nice to have things explained clearly and slowly lol
Thank you for this. I'm about to make a circle skirt and was nervous. I will take your advice and make a pattern first rather than try to wing it and cut on the fabric.
Great video Pricilla, really enjoyed it. I’d love to see a video on the box pleated circle sprite you mentioned please 😀
Thanks for sharing this, i am considering the idea of learning how to sew, your tutorial was really clear and well made.
This is honestly one of the most simple and easy to both understand and follow tutorials for this skirt pattern that I have ever seen so far, and the fact that you concisely explained this in 9 minutes makes you my new hero!! Thank you so much for this!! :D I am currently on my way to find a large enough area of floor space and a measuring tape to make this pattern right now, though I may have to use newspaper for mine as I don't have drafting paper lol XD but hey, if it works, it works, all you need is a pattern to cut your fabric with after all :)
I just found your channel yesterday and I'm loving your videos. Thank you for sharing.
I was looking to make this kind of skirt for a while. I'm so glad you had this video.
honestly this has helped me alot thank you so much!
Perfect you were thorough Sis keep it coming
Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial. I am completely new to sewing and learning via reading/ youtube. Your video has been so helpful and I’ve literally just drew my first ever pattern.
thank you so much
btw your hair looks amazing
This is such an easy and (mostly) foolproof tutorial. I stan. Thanks queen :)
Thanks, im a newbie sewer (i love how you simplify your instructional videos).
Thanks for the warm feedback Coco
The only problem I have is getting decimal point like the 4.78 on a measuring tape
Puddie Pie just round it off
Its actually not...I wish I knew u to show u hw
It's a little bit more than 4 and 3/4. You could round it off and should be alright.
I was thinking the same thing .. wat Type of UA-cam vids should I look up to help me with that ?? Anyone ?
Same here,I don't know how to
And they said I'd never use math outside of school. Lol.
The pleated circular skirt is so pretty! I think this was the first time I've seen this kind of skirt. Thank you.
I really loved the way you explained. You sounded more Educated and not always assuming. Good job.
You made this understandable for me and I’m so grateful thank you! Definitely going to check for the box one next!
I love how you teach. I finally understand how to get the inner circumference after watching your video. Thank you so much
Lady, you are a blessing. I am enjoying your tutorials. This is my next project. Thank you❤❤
Thank you for sharing this - I paused to take notes. Will definitely try!!!
Last year I skipped all of my geometry class and now I regret it :"""")
The internet is the answer XD
Haha I never did the second semester and I missed most of the first so I'm just trying my best :')
Just try and teach yourself or watch tutorials. I hate it too I know.
i’ve seen so many tutorials and this one was the only clear one. like such an amazing tutorial hoping to make my first skirt soon
Thank you! I’ve just started sewing clothes. I’ve always “winged” things in the past for my kids & so every other type of art, crafting, diy, refurbishing, house repairs, etc that you can think of. Since my kids are grown & I’ve been super artsy-fartsy lately, I’ve decided to start sewing. I mean, I have a machine.
I know I can do this!
My first project is a Mardi Gras cape for us. We live in New Orleans and are always trying to “out do” the year prior, so this year is capes!
I figured a circle skirt would be a great start for a cape. We didn’t want Superman capes. We want something that goes around & can fling behind, if desire.
Finger crossed!!
Your video helped me so much. And I understood ALL of it!
Oh wow
That’s amazing 👏👏👏
Thank you so much for the video.. I’m gonna try making this skirt this week ☺️ your videos are really easy to understand
Thank you so much ,your channel has really helped me in learning. Please I'll be waiting for the box pleated circle skirt tutorial
You welcome Dominion!
I'm happy work is of help to you.
I will work towards making the box pleated circle skirt in the near future.
I started sewing a year and a half ago and been trying to find a tutorial on how to make a circle skirt and this was really simple! Thank youuu!!!!❤️
Glad it was helpful!
You gave the best instructions by far. Love you!
Would love to make a high-low circle skirt...thanks Ma'am
Thank you so much for explaining this so well ❤️ also for saying how you weren’t good at math in school I was the same and been very hard on myself thinking I cannot do this.. but I can and thank you for your advice ❤️❤️ bless you
Thanks so much for this video. Fantastically well explained and no unnecessary talking. Well done! Can you do a tutorial on a double- and triple-circle skirt please. Suitable for flamenco etc? I've found one but it is not in English
Amazing tutorial!!! Love the video❤❤❤
Awesome video! helped me figure the patter that I'm making for my skirt!
Great work dear, I am going to try it tomorrow.
Thanks for the lesson
Found some beautiful material in my cupboard, this is my next project! Matching skirts for my girls and myself and hopefully a matching bow and head bands :) thanks beautiful
So much skill!!! Well done! Love the skirt!
Plzz provide ka video of stiching, cutting of ball gown in paneled
I have seen sooooo many tutorials on circle skirt math and my skirt always ends up a good 5" larger, even on non-stretch fabric. I am going to try your method because it makes sense. ☺️
I liked before watching! I love your tutorials😍
Oluwadolabomi Peace am in your shoes. As soon as she started the mathematics, I quickly liked it. If there was double likes, I would have given her. She also has good tools for teaching. God bless.
Hey just want to let you know girl that you always motivates me thanks for sharing your knowledge!!! Love lots !! Take care!!!
Thank you. The explanation was clear for us that are starting😉
BEST video ever! On circle skirt!
Thanks!
Hello Pris,
I remember the first time I saw this video, I was so excited to try it an I did, wow. Finally someone whom I could learn from without feeling like an Idiot, (considering that I had put in some months learning how to sew from a tailor here in Nigeria an ended up feeling stupid and frustrated not haven learned as much as I wanted). This video gave me hope and Joy and the background music is great too. Keep doing what you are doing the sky is your starting point and please please and please keep being yourself don't change except for the better
Thanks Diayne for your wonderful feedback. It really makes doing these tutorials fulfilling 🙏
Very good - this is the best basic Block video I've seen so far, I am looking to help a friend, I was once a sample machinist and a Pattern Maker and so on.
This is beautiful and thanks for explaining clearly... Well done
Your beautiful self and wonderful aura has truly made my day. Thank you for teaching us 😘
Not gonna lie the math went straight over my head. Very helpful though.
aaaaaa!! thank you :D this is exactly what ive been looking for!!!
This is the best video I’ve watched on circle skirts. Thanks very much
You are wonderful😚😚😚 I am in love with you and your work.😃Thank you soooo much for sharing these pattern making tutorials.👍❤
I went through a lot of videos, but your explanation is too good and easy to understand. Thanks
Love it! ❤ What an extraordinary video! Thanku! I thought it would be much more complicated. The maths bit will take me some time to learn it is true.
Love your tutorial. Very clear to understand
Perfect perfect 🥰 you defined it so so accurately , i was in huge trouble and confusion regarding radius. Thanks that you told it so clearly. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Wow dis is d best video l v ever watch on cutting circle flare,is better to know how things are achieved than just copying what u don't understand. Tnx again hoping to get other videos. UR a darling.
You are delightful and that was the perfect amount of information! Thank you!
Hi Kim, thank you for sharing. I still wonder how to put zippers and the draft didn't show zippers position. If the skirt has seam, should the seams be included in the measurement before calculating?
Thx.
thank you so much for this video! I am so inspired by the last bit on all the ways to use the circle pattern for other clothes!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this tutorial Kim. It's an eye opener which I'm going to share with my tutor. Yesterday, I ended up making a round skirt for a ten year old instead of 3 because of wrong calculation. Please does this formula apply to sleeves and other part you want to fix the flare? ❤
Thank you so much for this amazing explanation! You are a born teacher.
This is so well explained and helpful! Thank you so much! You just gained a subscriber!!
Appreciate the feedback ☺️ Welcome to the DIY family
You bright back my school memories
So easy to understand really explained the math in an easy way for everyone to understand I’m definitely giving this a try!
You are amazing, I make formal dresses for my granddaughters snd you have given me so many ideas!!!
Omg thank you!! This was literally the easiest video to follow!! I have watched other ones and still somehow managed to mess it up 😅
Finally, a tutorial I can understand for this style. Thank you
your videos are so informative and detailed. Thank you so much for explaining the basics so well.
You’re welcome 😃
The fact that this is almost 9:00 minutes long this is impressive for such an amazing tutorial
Wow this is the best video I've watched on circle skirt. Thank you so much
Thank you, I just watched this and the princess seam video. Your explanation and demonstrations really helps me to understand. If I get brave enough, I might even try both 😉
You welcome dear.
I hope you try it out in the future and possibly make yourself something gorgeous 😃
aaah I like your video ;-; i've looked many tutorials, and they all ake it so complicated and yours is so easy to understand!
First time watching you. Loved it. Super helpful. Thank you.
I'm planning on making a skirt that will have darker triangles that spread out from the waist band down the skirt's length. should I try this out like a double layer skirt?
love this video, love the accent. very helpful, thank you sooo much
Thanks for the video, pleasw I want to know if I can use the 6.28 to get the circumference of my knee or sleeves flair(at the elbow) while cutting.
Awesome video - thanks for explaining!
Thank you so greatly!!!!!!! You actually captioned your work making it easier for those of us that cannot hear able to follow along,,,,
Really appreciate this! Thank you!! So helpful!!
Thank you so much for sharing; I've enjoyed it. you've explained it 🥰 perfectly. I have pink tulle fabric and want to make a 3 ruffle circle skirt.
OH MY GOSH YOUR HAIR 💞 You are so gorgeous!
