- Hello, I'm Andrea of Sew-To-Fit, in this video I try and describe and explain the details of Skirt and Dress Fitting as I continue with measuring the body for proper hem lengths for your body type including the Curvy/Plus Size figure. I demonstrate how to use multiple methods for taking measurements on myself and then show how to measure others including the plus-size figure type.
Details are presented on what to consider when sewing a straight skirt for the prominent derriere'/buttock.
This is video goes with Video #5a: How to measure. The difference of front length compared to back and size hem lengths. • 5a- Tip: How to take m...
***To make the length adjustments, just add the extra length to the back and gradually return to meet the side seam smoothly.

Man, I wish I had found your videos earlier. LOVE that I have access to them now. Please continue to post. The best parts are that you do not edit out mistakes.
Reglindis Eckhardt So glad you loved it. It's a challenge to not take out the "good" stuff.
One of my favourite videos of yours AD
Awesome video!!! I have just returned to sewing after 30 year break and struggling with fit and hemming by myself...thank you again for your generous spirit...finally after seeing your videos I understand:)
Thank Jon. I'm glad this information has clarified some things for you. Thanks for watching.
THANK YOU for this video! Now my daughter and I can have skirts that don’t feel indecent in the back!
Lol 😆. I totally understand. Thanks for the feedback.
This is absolutely brilliant. I'm just learning to sew, and I did my first pattern--a wrap skirt--over the weekend, and let's just say the hemline was NOT at all even from front to back, and the skirt was already a little shorter than I wanted, so I couldn't really make the front much shorter. I kept thinking the pattern must have been made for people with flat butts. 😂 Anyway, this is a lifesaver, and I will definitely be doing this when I take on my next pattern. Thank you so much for putting this out there.
Good to hear. I know this is a trial and error issue for so many.
Thank you Thank you Thank you! I have just starting sewing and it has been difficult to figure out how to properly fit for my plus size body and this video just gave me life. I almost want to cry. You are amazing,
+Martha McIntosh Martha, don't make me blush...you are great and I really appreciate your comments. Thanks very much.
Thank you for explaining how to measure a hem.
No problem!
You two are funny and your daughter is so cute too! (Yes, she did get it all from her mom, LOL!!) I used your method of measuring myself this weekend to fit my new dress form! BTW...I loved the color blocked skirt in the snapshot! Thanks for the great tip!
+1SewSweet Thanks Myra. You are very welcome. That skirt was left over fabric from a blog post I did when I made a pair of pants from that fabric here: www.sewtofit.com/2015/07/palazzo-pants-another-wrap-top-and.html

Hello Andrea! Have you uploaded the link for the next video yet? I didn't see it.

+Zanchelle Shaw You are very welcome.
Thank you so much for these videos. I love sewing but I'm shaped very much like your daughter. It's discouraging when nothing fits properly! Where's the next video so that I can make pattern adjustments for my boonky??
I have developed a live class to teach all the ways you can address these issues. Please stay tuned for more information. Thanks.
What if the skirt has a center back zipper? Do the general rule still apply?
It would be the same no matter if there is a zipper allowance in the back.
is the natural waist when the person bends over to the side?
Please to get where the waist line is, is a big problem for me, please is it 2inch above the belly button for all body type
+Diamond It's in the middle between your rib and the tip of your hip bone
you are beautiful
