BratBusters Parenting p. I

Hello there

So true! I have a overlocker and a sewing machine and 90% of the time I do stretch-fabrics. Pants and Shirts are made in no time and with a overlocker it looks really professional!

Haha. Yes! She's awesome! You're right, it is fun to show two different perspectives. I should have guests on more often! Thanks Klaire! - Dana

alsocheap wallpaper i got some for 10p a roll and it would be really strong

Great idea! Thank you so much!

Robyn Downes love the idea!!!

hakanta That's also great for having the kids paint on, as it can take a lot of water before it breaks. I use lining paper, which is nice and smooth

I agree with the close ups. For beginners, the more pictures we can see the better. But still great videos!!

Yes! I'm really curious what the hem looked like

More close ups

I agree!

+Sarah Tanguay Awesome! That's so great to hear! Congrats on your serger :) - Dana

What did you do to make sure the baby leggings stay up.. as there was no elastic added and once crawling around they will be down in no time lol??

Jacqui Rowe I agree! I would have used that band as a casing, or made it even tighter/smaller and gathered the top of the pants before sewing it on.

Same!😮

My dad worked at a paper for nearly forty years, I loved getting the end rolls to play with!

Yep. That's my favorite thing to do!

Cant believe I never thought of this! Especially the part where you don't have to hem!!! I HATE hemming :) Thank you for this. Wow... All of these old shirts I have will now have a purpose.

Love the hemming trick.

I don't have a serger so will try with my zig zag.

Seriously made me giggle while I was in a bad mood. Thank you!

S1MNICITY I'm saying the same! Lol

Me too.

chevon1920 IKR! Me too

I dont think she made those, but ya super cute :)

Pets & Crafts She did. All of the leggings were homemade.

Katherine Sillaman cz she is not using any elastic she wants the waistband to be a snugg fit, i thnk she said that 😟

Tazeen Firdous​ no i know that. My question was did she intentionally cut it even shorter than she said she was going to, or was her math off, or did she just misspeak. Her daughter had a 20 inch waist. Then she said she needs it an INCH smaller to hug the waist, So she said she wanted 19 inches for the waist. (which when you fold it, your measurement should be 9 and a half inches to get 19 inches) When she actually cut it, she said 8 and a half. Which would make the measurement 17 inches, NOT 19. Im wondering if this was intentional or if she accidentally mispoke and said 8 and a half when she meant to say 9 and a half. Or maybe her math was just off. All i know is, what she was saying didnt add up. I know she wanted the waist smaller but she ended uo making it 2 inches smaller than what she said she wanted. Instead of one inch smaller than the pants waist,(19 inch waistband and a 20 inch waist) she ended up cutting it 3 inches smaller by making it 17 inches for a 20 inch waist. I understand why theyre doing it, im just not understanding why she changed it or if it was an accident or miscalculation on her part lol

Katherine Sillaman looool mayb she accidentally mispoke 😕

Katherine Sillaman Also when she cut the band she had two pieces. My thought was she must be putting a seam on each side. But when she discribe sewing the band in a tube she only had the one piece of fabric resulting in one side seam.

Geraldine Lombardo​ her piece was folded

Lydia J Awesome! Thanks Lydia. That's really nice to hear :) - Dana

Pattichannel That is super smart!👍🏼

You can find great T-shirts in thrift stores to make leggings, undies, and camisoles. Even babies' receiving blankets in knit fabric can be used to make cute garments and matching accessories like scrunchies and hairbands!

Joanna Allali I have a tote bag video....which you could add some pockets to on the inside and use as a diaper bag: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7VzhcadzJbMoIk.html

so your saying that i could just add pockets

MADE Everyday

hey

can you make a video on how to use your baby lock so I can keep up with

I think she chose a smaller diameter because she wants them to be a little tighter on the waist. That, or she screwed the math up ;)

13:52, there's your answer. It's on purpose so that the waistband acts as an elastic.

@@julianvidal7361 I think the math is wrong. She wanted the fabric to be 19 inches because the waist was 20 inches.

Yes! For children's leggings, you can easily find large-enough remnants in the bargain bin at fabric stores. Another idea is to use old or damaged t-shirts! I just finished making a camisole out of a nice new-ish t-shirt that got a hole in the sleeve during the wash. (Ugh, front-loaders and fast fashion are NOT compatible. Would love to see both banished from the Earth.)

I really liked this video but have to agree on the idea of buying a garment just to cut it up, especially a larger sized garment because us larger people have a hard enough time finding something nice. Also, and more important, I agree that it devalues the work of the person who made the original piece. I used to make little drop waist dresses for my daughter out of my old tee shirts and she loved them. Now I'm about to start making things for my granddaughters out of old garments.

ciaphas100 seriously you are getting offended because of this?

@@naposletkunaposletku5836 Excuse me but at what particular point did I say I was offended??? It's an opinion. It just seems a little harsh to destroy a brand new item when you can buy cheap remnants or recycle old clothes is all I'm saying, the same as the other two posts. How come you didn't pick on them?

She probably wanted to say thrift store or old shirt, but maybe was afraid to say either because people can be picky about what they put on their babies. I used lots of old clothes and thrift clothes while learning to sew, and she definitely aims to help beginners, so maybe that’s also why. Fabric is expensive, and sadly, lots of times, it’s cheaper to buy the finished product.

+rebecca green Thanks Rebecca!

because 2T is a size, and her kid probably fits in 2T (many clothes can be matked as 2 years, 24MO OR 2T. they mean the same thing). if you know that your kid doesnt fit in 2T, then you obviously wouldnt make 2T leggings for them. but for the most part, 2 year olds tend to fit in 2T, so if she wa ted to make a pair for someone she KNOWS wears 2T , Shed look for the 2T/2Y/24Mo pattern. does that make sense? i think youre just being a tad over sensitive and reading too much into it

+Katherine Sillaman I just think it's hard when mpst clothes here in Sweden is marked for example 94, wich is for 94cm long children and so on (my 3 year old wears 100-104 clothes now) and then suddenly you get clothes marked "3 years" and you have no idea if they will fit.

Ahaha i understand. Its because here in americab our sizes are marked by "age" for babies and toddlers, and then those sizes cover a specific range of height/age. Does that make a little more sense? Like for an example, here in the U.S, newborn size is called newborn, and it can fit babies whos weight ranges between 5ibs-10ibs and of course a range of heights from the newborns range. Our sizing system is very screwy, because not only do they do it like that, but EVERY clothing company has a different range system for their sizing, so a newborn in one company could be 5-10ibs and the other company it could be 5-7ibs. Its like this with all clothing, bur once you get to childrens and adults, it goes by measurements, but the sizes are just numbers (00, 0, 1, 2, 3 etc... ) Its usually a trial and error to fond what fits or sometimes theyll say it on the tag for childrens clothes what height and weight corresponds to this size.

Well, I guess it is a system at least. You can pray you get the metric system over there some day... ;)

+Johanna “Vidde” Julén i wish! lol
