How I Sewed my Basic Shirred Top with Shoulder Ties & Embroidered Peplum Details
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2024
- Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed up my super basic shirred top with shoulder tie straps and embroidered peplum detail. This is the precursor to another design I hope to complete and making this allowed me to work out the kinks in the design. That being said it is a great stand alone little beach top which would look fab on a summers day with shorts or perhaps some linen trousers. I hope that those of you embarking on making your own shirred top enjoy and find the video useful. Susanne 💕

Great video. You gave important details that all others have left off. Most important is how you finished off your rows.
What a beautiful top. Love the shirring
So beautiful 😍
Thank you
The top is adorable! Every week I think, “oh this is my favorite!” Then, the next week, “this is my favorite!”
Beautiful!! And you voice is so sweet and soothing!!!!
So so cute😍
Cute
You always find the most wonderful fabrics! That turned out really well. The wider elastic made such a difference. I’ll be interested to see what you plan to make, now you know it works.
👏
I love your work! You are a great teacher ❤️
Terrific clear and simplified instructions really good. Thank you for taking the time to share.
If only my voice could be so calming and my sewing so good.
I love the effect shirring gives to clothes and it makes them stylish yet comfortable. Also, it’s so satisfying when the elastic shrinks when applying steam. I love your top. The embroidery makes is especially pretty ☺️
Thank you for this demonstration I have wanted to use this method for a while.
Great video as usual……..many thanks. Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow. A lovely fabric…….you must be so pleased to have found an ideal way of showcasing that fantastic embroidery. Well done!
Hi Suzanne, I'm absolutely blown away by your videos. You have amazing talent, it's hard to believe that you only started sewing in 2015!! I'm really enjoying the pattern making techniques as I'm very interested in pattern drafting and you have given me so much inspiration, thank you. Well done on all you have achieved. Your finished garments are so professional looking. I look forward so much to your weekly videos, keep them coming!. I watch other sewing vloggers, but you stand out from most with your pattern creations. Well done 👏
this looks so great! learnt a ton on shirred tops from your video.
Kindly do a video on pattern making for this, thanks 😊
You make it look so easy. I love your videos
Another gem 👍 Happy Friday
I love this top! Your best yet my dear.
Absolutely beautiful. I have been making this style of dress for my daughter and now my grand daughter. I design them my self so was very intrested to see your method. Thanks for this video, i loved watching it.❤
So perfect for summer! love the fabric and the color and as usual you make it look so easy!
This top is gorgeous as usual you have excelled yourself I love it , now to look for some fabric to try one myself x
PS could you do a video of how to add angel sleeves ? Thank you 🙂
So pretty. I’ve seen that fabric online somewhere but I can’t remember where 😆😆
Great video ... CAn I use this method for a dress so using 2 pieces of fabric rather than one which can make the bottom of the dress to poofy? thank you
Do you have somewhere I can purchase this pattern?
Don't you have to back stitch or tie off the stitch at the beginning and end of each row? Otherwise, it's just a basting stitch that may come undone, right?
