Gathered Maxi Skirt Sewing Tutorial - Draft your own sewing pattern

Hi sewing besties!! Welcome back to another sewing tutorial.
Today we are making a gathered maxi skirt with an elastic waist band. I first made this skirt this year for my brand Solana Handmade and I used Pointelle Cotton Jersey Fabric but this time I used this white embroidered cotton fabric.
I can either make it into a maxi skirt or maybe you first want to test your pattern and check how you go by making it into a mini or midi skirt.
Let me know how you go and if you have any questions leave them in the comments here. And if you have any tips for me and everyone else please also leave them in the comments so we can all learn from each other.
Lots of love,
Ann-Sophie

OMG I just noticed a HUGE mistake with the pattern!!!! It’s not your waist measurement you need but your HIP measurement!!!

@ilovenutella001 2 ай бұрын

@nancymanzi5376 i think what she meant is that in the beginning she said the waist is 96 cm but it is the hips measurements

I just followed this tutorial and made this skirt a few days ago! It turned out so well, this tutorial was so easy and simple to follow and I would highly recommend this! The skirt turned out so cute, I used a yellow floral print cotton, and I’ve gotten quite a few compliments on it! 10/10 tutorial, thank you so much!

Also just wanted to point out if you’re using a regular sewing machine for overlocking, MAKE SURE you change the presser foot! I was this close 🤏 to breaking a needle

Hi, thank you so much for your video, it will be my next project! Just one question: How can I change the measurements if I would like to wear the skirt a bit more up, so not on my hips, but on my waist? :-)

@jazzmanblubbi4786 19 күн бұрын

Thank you for sharing this very nice tutorial for that skirt, I love mine! One question: is there a tutorial for the very left top you’re wearing in the thumbnail picture? It looks like two squares on two straps- I love it! How can I get it? 🤩

@SewingwithSolana Hi Solana! Do you also have patterns and/or tutorials for both of these adorable tops you paired with the maxi skirt? And, the dress you're wearing - is that your dress pattern?! I think my daughter would love ALL of these things!! Thank you :)

Hey I have a question, at the beginning of the video you talk about needing your hip measurement but later on you write down waist. Which one is the correct one?

@Sewingwithsolana 8 ай бұрын

Upps, I didn’t even notice! You need your hip measurement!

@shaunafanning907 6 ай бұрын

@@Sewingwithsolana Also a little confused with this, should waist measurement be used if I want it to be high waisted and snug around the waist? I'm afraid to cut as it's my first time using bought fabric 🤣Thank you for the tutorial btw, love your videos 🙏

hey! wonderful tutorial, thank you! i have two questions: 1. can i only use zigzag stitches? my sewing machine is very old and has just zigzags 2. what type of fabric should it be? what should i ask for in the shop?

Hello! Why did you add 15cm to your waist after you measured it? X

@isidoraescobar6370 4 ай бұрын

I think it's for the elastic band + so the skirt can pass your hips it they're wider than your waist

@langvandslien 29 күн бұрын

I think she says waist, but should say hip.

Question! I got the recommended length of fabric and am actually using the same measurements as you, but cannot figure out a way to cut my fabric in order to have enough for all the pieces. Any advice? You mentioned you got 1, 7 m of fabric. How wide is it?

How much fabric do we need for this?

@pia566 Ай бұрын

My measurements don’t make any sense. My first one is 71,5 cm, do I need to cut twice with 71,5 cm for back and front or do I need to divide it by 2 and then cut but when I do that it’s way to short for my hips and waist? And my last section is 160 cm, when I cut two with 160cm that’s so much fabric that I think that it’s wrong 😂 but when I divide it then I have the problem with the first section. I think I did something wrong. My HIP is 113 cm normal and my waist is 83cm
