thank you for this tutorial! it was easy to follow and the top came out so cute! next time I'd probably do a little longer than 10" tall, just cuz it's coming out more like a cute bra on me 😅 (and I'm not large-chested). but can't wait to make more!

@rozetta5778 3 жыл бұрын
Try setting your machine to a tension of 4 or 5; and increase stitch length, I increased mine from 2 to a 3. Lastly you can adjust your bobbin tension by turning the screw on the bobbin case.

Hi! I don’t provide the exact cm measurement in this tutorial as you need to measure your own body and follow my instructions on how to calculate it. I have a slide in this video sharing how to calculate the pieces you need to cut xx

what numbers/how wide do you set your zig zag stitch at? thank you!
@Tammy.Handmade 3 жыл бұрын
You only use the zigzag stitch for attaching the side seam once you’ve finished shirring if you don’t have an overlocker. I would just use a general zig zag stitch or 2.5 length and 3.5 wide

Do you have to use a zigzag for shirring ? Or a straight stitch. I apologize I am new to this. I would assume zigzag for stretch but wasn't positive. Thanks it's beautiful

No worries, you need to use a standard straight stitch!

Hi! How much fabric did you get? And did you adjust your stitch length or tension in some way for the shirring?
@Tammy.Handmade 4 жыл бұрын
Hey! I had a scrap of fabric that was about 55 inches wide and 30 inches high. So you could buy a metre of fabric, just make sure it’s wide enough. 😊 I didn’t actually have to adjust my tension or stitch length, I used a tension of 5, and then my normal stitch length for shirring. Just remember to backstitch and the beginning and end of each shirring line to secure it. Depending on your fabric or machine, you might want to play around with different stitch lengths and tension if it’s not shirring correctly xx

Hi the sewing machine will gather the fabric when you use elastic thread in the bobbin and the correct tension. It might take a few rows of stitching before you see the gathering effect appear.

I am So frustrated. I have a singer 2277. I have tried all of your tips tricks videos. I’ve changed stitch length to 3-4, tension from 5 all way up to 9. Stretching flat as I sew , tightened and loosen bobbin casing, light weight fabric and still it is not working fabric shir is loose and or top thread popping ? Do you have any suggestions or does some machines just not shir?

How much more fabric should be taken from the original measurement while making such a top?

You need to do bust measurement x 1.5

Hey! So all you have to do is measure your whole bust. So take the measuring tape and wrap it around your bust. For example mine was 33 inches. I hope that helps x

I don't think 1.5 × full bust measurement is a good idea. The top is going to turn out too big. Be sure before you cut any fabric
@SamanthaMadison197 2 ай бұрын
Shirring reduces the width of fabric by about half - so 1.5x the full bust measurement seems fine to me.
