Your tutorial is the best one I watched. My two favorite ways are : first method for something quick, third method for a more polished look. My daughter likes wearing sun dresses that are shirred; but I always thought it to complicated. I’m pleased with the simplicity of these methods. Thank you for an easily understood tutorial.

Love this! Thank you! I learned to sew from my mama and grandma and used to have all of the tips and tricks. Now, I work in an office and haven't sewed in years - but with a young daughter I really want to sew for her but also get back into sewing for myself! It used to be such a joy to create my own things. I remember a lot but with little time and a patchy memory, your tutorials are wonderful! Super great detail and quick and full in terms of practical applications, pros and cons etc. Thank you again and I very much look forward to getting back into it all with your videos and sharing of your expertise as part of that.

Growing up in the UK, we girls got the smocked dresses and blouses. Here in the US, I am sewing an old (70s) vintage child's peasant dress with shirring for the bodice. I would have to mail off for the elastic thread and end up paying from $15 up. I like frugal. I can walk to the shop and get the 1/4 inch elastic, so the third method it is. I learned to embroider and mend as a child, (dad learned hand sewing and mending in the military and I became his recruit) so I actually like the sewing machine and hand sewing just fine. Thank you.

@Sasha Starlight I've got one cut out just waiting on the other elastic. As I tried with the usual one. It failed dismally and I had to UNPICK. For some reason it wouldn't shirr at all? But it had in the practice matching fabric. I won't be beaten though. Thanks Sasha ❤️

@nataliak2350 2 ай бұрын

Thank you for this video and especially for the third method! I was thinking of trying smth like this but somehow it seemed too time consuming. But honestly considering how much i always struggle with the first method, i think the third one might be quicker for me. I made a few dresses with the first method and i swear to god, every time smth happened - one time the shirring suddenly became looser halfway through and no matter how much I fiddled with tension it would not go back; the other time the elastic thread i bought was apparently too old and just kept breaking; not to mention how tedious it is to change lower tension on my machine and then change it back to normal without my machine(or me) having a tantrum. Anyways, enough complaining :) thank u for this, i'm definitely gonna use the third method from now on! Also I love ur style

Thank you so much. Im about to try and make a gypsy dress and have both elastics. Although my 1st attempt laat year was a nightmare honestly. I managed it but found the elastic did irritate my skin. Now im thinking of attempting number 3 which will not only irradicate being uncomfortable but also means on see-through fabric i wont feel self conscious. I also want to add a partial lining on the skirt part for the sheerness of the fabric. I pray i can make this work i don't mind it being time consuming just hope i can sew straight lines with being still a newbie sewer. Have a wonderful day ❤
