General advice based on my experience: measure out an extra, or two extra pleat(s) when cutting the initial fabric. I had the same experience where i had to take out 3 pleats to make it fit, so just measure out a bit more fabric to begin with.
oh wow! this is super helpful advice!! thank you sooo much!! ❣
Also be ready to have to dart the fabric up top, or make it bigger for the butt lol. This is my first clothing project, so it's definitely a learning process.

Im a total beginner. Would you be able to say roughly how much that would be? Like how much extra we should measure out?
One of the best and easiest tutorials to follow!! Thank you!!!
💕💕💕
Super cute. Super easy for beginners. Love how you gave instructions bc usually sewing instructions can be exhaustive with too many directions, or they leave out necessary visuals, or they're just overwhelming! You did amazing. Love that you included your troubleshooting steps as well.
Thank you so very much for such thorough feedback!!! 💕
Just found your channel-- I'm so excited to binge watch the rest of your videos while I work on sewing projects!!
Ahhhh! yaaayyyy!!!!! I'm so happy you found me! Happy Binging Watching and Sewing! 💞💞
I've watched a few tutorials, but yours by far has been the most helpful. I'm making a costume that has a pleated skirt, so I'm editing a pattern, but your tutorial has helped me understand the pattern piece I'm using a bit better to help me decide what I want to do with it.
Thanks again! Also, you're really beautiful and charismatic
Thank you so much!! I'm so happy that your were able to find some clarity!! I hope you'll consider checking out my other tutorials! Happy Sewing! 💕
Yes! Omg I hope you don't mind that I saved this video on my private playlist for future reference ❤️(cus your girl be getting her sewing machine this december 13)
Yes Alvira! No problem, I'm happy that you've added my video to your private list, thank you. ♥
Yes! This helped me make my first skirt for my Chiaki Nanami cosplay 💕💕💕
I love that you pin with quilting clips! I discovered those a while back, game changer.
The best right?!!
yes! love the way you walk through everything it’s sooooo easy to follow you give me faith that i can actually do this myself 😭😭
you Totally can do it yourself!!!! i believe in you...like for real for real !!! 💞
The way you explain things is just SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND! I will definitely be following this video when I make my skirt! ❤️
Awwwhhh thank youu! Your skirt is gonna come out great, i just know it!!! 💞
Very easy to follow and I'm really happy you left the little measuring flub in the vid since it's a reoccurring problem I have and you did a good job in explaining how to fix it

Thank you for the video! I finally understand how to make pleats on my planned skirt! You made it look so easy! The other videos I watched couldn’t keep my attention at all, I got bored after a while. I love how you narrated it. It kept me interested til the end!
Yayyyy!!! I’m so happy you were able to get the clarity you were looking for. What do you think my not tutorial should be on?
Hey I’m only used to metric system so I don’t really understand it! Can you write the instructions in centimeters maybe! I looks so beautiful. Sorry
Hey there! Maybe in the moments where I mention measurements you can pause and use google to convert the measurements. I hope this is helpful 😊 ❤️
this is really well made and i love the way you describe stuff, it is easy to digest.. thank you! i have trouble with measurements and i am a very new beginner but i think i will try this out by using this tutorial very soon :)

THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE TENSION
Best tutorial I’ve come across thus far! How much fabric did you begin with?
Thanks again ❣️ I used about 2 yards of fabric
Thanks to you I've had several breakdowns while making this skirt
Oh nooo 😔 what part(s) of the video has caused your breakdown?
Wow this tutorial is so straightforward and easy to follow, I've been wanting to do this for months but didn't want to follow a pattern. Thank you!
Yayy!!! Im happy that you found my tutorial easy to follow and I hope you’ll stick around to watch my other tutorials. 💥💕
Yessss! This is so cute! Definitely helps me for what I’m wanting to make!!!!
yes!!! omg its so cute
thank yoouuuu
@@ShaniaShania of coursee actually im measuring to make one rn
@@ShaniaShania may I ask what fabric you used
thank you sm i'm gonna make this in black!
i have question if i wanto make this a little bit longer do i need 2 yards of fabric or more?👀
Heyyyy! It depends on how much longer you’re trying to make it, and your size
/body measurements overall. Sorry that this wasn’t the most straightforward answer 😔 If you still need help, dm me on Insta and we can find a way to figure out the yardage for you.
Yes! Also I love your energy!!!!
This got so many ideas going in my head! Yes! 💕
omg I need to learn how to do this. i only have two yards of fabric. do you think this is enough for the skirt?
hmmm, it depends on your measurements. If you're about the same size as me then 2 yards should be fine. Hope this helps!
I immediately love you
Yes! 😍 love it!
Yes! Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I love your personality by the way!
Thank you so much❣️
it looks amazing on you! thank you so much!! yes!
Yesssss!!! thaank you!!! 💞
The chili hanging from the tomato is to sharpen needles!
Wooww! Thank you!
I want to ask when you measured your waist did you multiplied it with 3 to make it pleated
It’s to give pleat allowance coz pleats use a lot of fabric 🙂
Yes! Thanks so much! I’m making a plaid skirt like this and needed good instructions like yours!
did you end up making the plaid skirt?!
I adore your channel!!! Thanks thanks thanks from Paris France !!!!
Oh wow, Paris!!! Amazing!!! Sending hugs and kisses from New York!! Thanks for watching my video ❣️
Yesssss!!!!!!
Yes honey!!!!💞
What type of fabric did you use?
I presume a tightly woven cotton but that’s just from looking.
that's a good inference 💕
I used cotton tartan fabric from fabric.com
yesss!!! queen came and served not only looks but skills too! We love to see it :)))
thaank you thank uuuuu!!! ❣💖
Yessss!
My sister gave me a sewing machine for my birthday. And your Videos are pefect to follow. Thank youuuz❤️❤️
yeesss!!! that's so exciting to have a sewing machine :D What's the first thing that you're gonna make? 💞
Helo! What type of fabric do you use??
Hello there! I used cotton plaid tartan fabric from fabric.com.
@@ShaniaShania ok! Thank you so bad ☺️
@Byme 0423 you're welcome! 💞
What should I do if my fabric is thin? It’s thin enough to see my finger underneath, but no colour. Thanks!
Maybe try seeing another layer of the fabric on top
Sewing
you try adding a lining, or just wear some black short underneath. Hope this helps!!
Yes! Great tutorial and super cute skirt!
thaaank youu!!
This is incredibly helpful! Thank you!
You're very welcome!!
I think the reason it didn't fit you was because you topstitched the pleats down to four inches without taking into account that your circumference 4 inches below your waist is larger, cause its kinda on your hips :-)
Wooowww! 😳I think you're right, thank you so much for sharing that 💗
omg! Thank you! This was a helpful comment. Something to keep in mind for future projects.
Yes, I watched all the way through , and I FULLY intend to watch it multiple times again!!! Very clear, nicely explained. BUT, this (and most EVERY pleated skirt video I see) say to start with the waist measurement, (ok, fine so far) but then sew the pleats 4,5,6 inches straight down. If you do that, it's not going to fit over your hips, and butt! It needs to be wider over the hips,than what the waist is.
I'm sorry, but I don't see how it can work! 😵💫😵💫😵💫
I think it does work especially with the help of the zipper and potentially adding more inches for the width of the pleats, but give it a try with some old fabric and see how it goes!! Let me know if you have any questions!💕✨
@@ShaniaShania thanks Shania!
I fully plan on making and/or buying many more skirts, but another VERY frustrating thing is that I get A LOT of negativity, because "guys aren't supposed to wear skirts)! 🤬 I like wearing them!!!
I agree. It seems like the skirt will always be too small through the hips using the waist measurement. Then we'll have to undo the pleats to fix it. I wonder how to do it and make the hops and waist work from the beginning.
Love your confidence 💜
thank youuu ❣️
YES! stunning bruh absolutely serving!
The only thing you forgot is to times your waist by 3
.
@@ShaniaShania you’re skirt came out beautiful though
@@aliyahreid41 thank you!
YESSSSSSSS!! The girls who teach how to make this skirt aren't blessed like me 🤣🤣 My ass would never fit in those tiny little skirts with literally no room for the girls 🍑. Thank youuuu ♥️♥️ Kisses from Brazil ♥️♥️
Yeeessss!!! Girrrrlll, I know exactly what u mean hahaha
Sending you warmth and love from the USA 💞💞
I love it!!! It looks so cute.
Thanks Cheryl 💞💞💞
Yes! I love how it turned out💓✨
💞💞💞 Thank u so much!
Why didn’t you say right at the start that the measurements weren’t correct… but in the middle of the video…
I thought that was the best way to be transparent without causing confusion
@@ShaniaShania I see but I think it would have been more clear to fix it right at the beginning so that people watching along wouldn’t have made the same mistake in measurement
Yes can someone explain what the mistake was so we can avoid it
@@cfg1110 in the the middle of the video she said she sized it wrong. Meaning the fabric may be too short
Hello, I have a question,does sewing require a lot of math, because I'm not good at it🙂
Heyyy! Not always, it depends on what you're making. If it helps at all, I'm also not the best at math hahaha
@@ShaniaShania aww thanks a lot for answering, you earned a sub:)
@@lalalalalalalaaallalalalal2069 you’re welcome, and thanks fir subscribing 💞

THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW TO READJUST THE PLEATS!!! That's always where I get frustrated. You made it so clear
You’re welcome ❣️
To males who read this: I know you’re a femboy that wants a skirt but your parents don’t know you’re a femboy yet and you’re too scared to tell them
lol
Just because a guy likes skirts, does NOT automatically make us fem!!!
I’m glad I found this channel. This tutorial looks nice and simple 😭❤️

Very nice. I wanted to learn how to make the plates less bulky around the waist, and you showed how to do that in your video.
Yayyy! So happy to help!!🥰💕🥰
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! what an excellent tutorial! this was so easy to follow and Im so in love with my skirt
Yaaay!! Im so happy to hear that 💕💕💕
You are a ray of sunshine!! So inspired to go make this 🤩
Thaaanks Casey! I’d love to see how it turns out...tag/DM me on insta (@shaniainside), or email it to me: fashionxshania@gmail.com 😍😊
Great video on how to pleat! I learned a lot from watching this! I think that the best way to get the correct size of the skirt is maybe to measure a bit lower down on the body and not measure the waist where it's the smallest. As the pleats are sown down the skirt is the size of the skirt should be the size where the bottom of the pleats hit. Then the waistband can be the correct waist size and slightly sinch it in. Hope that makes sense.
Such a great tutorial! 💗
Thank you❣️
