Wow! Easy to follow, turned out beautifully. Thank you.
I have made kick- pleats in several straight mid-length dresses & skirts. I don't have a sewing machine any more, so therefore I do it by hand. I do all my hemming by hand using the slip-stitch method. For a kick pleat it's pretty logical & the stitching is small, straight, close, & small! One stitch after another (like an automatic sewing machine would do). The dress I'm working on today is about midcalf, but straight & I decided to put a "side" kick pleat in it. For me, I just look at it logically first,
but I have done this before on other straight dresses & skirts. I just determine myself to accomplish it & then do it!! Watching helpful videos on line can help tremendously but allot of it is logic.
Holy Cow! I’m a Pandemic Sewer - purchased my simple singer to learn how to make masks in desperation - now I’m attempting to make clothes and you’re instruction worked like a charm!!! I didn’t see why we needed to do all these little steps but I trusted the process and whatdya know! My kick pleat looks neat and professional!!!!!
Thank you!!!! 🙏🏽👍🏽💐💐💐
This is an amazing tutorial! So easy to follow and my very first kick pleat turned out beautifully. Thank you!
That is actually a vent, not a kick pleat. Kick pleats are what cheerleaders used to wear with alternate colors
Such a great demo.Think I will give it a go would like to know how to line the skirt with a kick pleat though.
Thank you, the instructions was awfully GOOD.
wonderful video, thanks for teaching me something today
Detailed instructions, thank you. I especially appreciate learning how to reduce bulk on those corners. Just one teeeny criticism: the 80s music was distracting as I was straining to take in so much info.
Hi Laura thanks for your video it is a great help. Do have a video on how to sew a lined kick-pleat?
About to give this a try, thanks for the inspiration x x
@9:25 I think you meant straight stitch, not stretch stitch
Love the tutorial, but that's not a kick pleat. Kick pleat is what cheerleaders used to wear
