DIY Maxi Wrap Skirt | How to Make a Wrap Skirt without a Pattern | Easy Wrap Skirt Tutorial

[@JellyJoeyable]

I have been watching sewing videos all day and it has been frustrating, confusing, overly complex. Your video for this wrap skirt is so beautifully shown, easy to follow, easy to understand. THANK YOU. Out of hours of frustration, thank you immensely.

[@sehzzy]

Hi, I just want to say thank you. I am a complete beginner with a sewing machine (let alone making clothing) and you just helped me make my lockdown wedding skirt 😄 it’s beautiful and I made it in a day (including having to fix my blunders!). It’s the first piece of clothing I’ve ever made and I love it! Thank you! 🙏

[@ComicatCreations]

This has made my week!!! Congratulations on making your first clothing item and double congratulations on your wedding!!! I am seriously so honored that my project had a part in your special day - it means the world to me and I really appreciate you letting me know 😊 If you’d ever like to share a picture of it I would love to see. Thank you so much and I wish you all the love and happiness in your marriage! 💕

[@joanneginever1890]

I saw an awesome hack for gathering, incredibly easy and works perfectly. Use long piece of dental floss and stitch to edge to be gathered about 1cm from edge, using a wide zigzag stitch over the dental floss, taking care not to stitch into the floss, just across the top of it. Pull on the cord-floss to evenly and very easily gather up the fabric. No broken threads to deal with, floss slides easily through the zigzag stitches!😊👍Note, you don't have to remove the floss afterwards. Ps, wonderful video, and you are a delightful young lady 😊💖

This is seriously the DIY I've been waiting for. I bought some beautiful sari fabric in India in 2012 with the intention of making a wrap skirt. However, I've been terrified to do it because I knew I could never get the fabric again! I spent 4 hours making it today and it's amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing such a great tutorial (the basting-stitch part was the most helpful). If you have an IG, let me know and I'll tag you in it :)

Nice and easy to make. I'm going to add interfacing to waistband; my fabric is lightweight and that will prevent the puckering when doing the buttonhole.

[@symantham6465]

Hi, Can this be made with cotton fabric?

[@sheissewspiritual7840]

Hi! When you say to make sure it can wrap around you twice, are you saying twice the waist measure or twice the hip measure?

[@RB-pk4br]

I'm no seamstress but the only difference I would make is to have put the wrap all the way through the waist tube for extra strength. Idk if it'd require more sewing to keep it from twisting inside. This tutorial rocks, btw n I'm definitely trying this.

[@hollyleafwell2118]

I have a piece of fabric that was precut and I don't think I will get the coverage I need if I gather it. Will the skirt look okay ungathered?

[@malasoni1234]

Nice

[@xzan1276]

Just came across this! Thank you so much for this! Following:) If I wanted to make the slit more noticeable/more leg out/the skirt a bit “sexier”, would I just cut the rectangle shorter? Or change how I gather it?

[@alisonmaschmeier8850]

I love this! Only thing that makes me nervous is the gathering. I have never been able to gather the way you do. I break the thread or somehow pull a thread all the way out 🤣🙄

[@ComicatCreations]

Thank you! I used to have that problem with gathering too!!! It would drive me crazy and I would avoid making gathering projects. For whatever reason I don’t have that problem on my newer sewing machine, so I wonder if I didn’t have it set up right on my other machine or maybe I was using bad thread that would break easily, I’m not sure. I do remember seeing a tip last year somewhere (I can’t remember where I saw it, but it looks like there are several sewing tutorials on this method) that suggested gathering fabric by sewing long wide zigzag stitches over a piece of string or yarn and then pulling on the yarn to gather the fabric, rather than doing it the way I show. I think the point is that the yarn won’t break easily like the thread would. It might be worth a shot to look it up and give it a try!

[@RossyAmara]

Hello, hope you are well, it's been such a long time since you posted. Thought of you today and just saying hello

[@oboepenny]

Wow, such a great design! I've got my fabric and will give it a go. I've recently started making clothes and this will be the perfect project! I have a question though - when the fabric is wrapped around, does that make the bottom uneven and would I need to compensate for that when hemming?

[@ComicatCreations]

Thanks, I hope you have fun making it! I didn't have any problems with the bottom being uneven on mine after it all gathered together. You could always cut it a few inches longer than you think you'll want it to be just in case you need to adjust anything and then trim and hem the bottom edge after you've been able to try it on to make sure it's exactly the length you want, that way those few extra inches ensure that it doesn't wind up too short on accident!

[@oboepenny]

@@ComicatCreations Thanks! I went ahead and made the skirt - I couldn't be happier with the outcome. It was really easy so a rewarding and confidence building project with the added bonus of my first ever button hole!

[@arianaracquel2521]

How does this look hard and easy at the same time ? Lol 😂... if I mess up on the button hole part, I’m gonna cry 🤣

[@ComicatCreations]

Haha it’s really not too hard! I’ve seen several great recreations of this skirt since I’ve posted it so I’m sure you can make one too 😃 I used to be so afraid of buttonholes and avoided them because they seemed intimidating but they were so much easier than I expected once I read my manual to see how to make one and actually tried. My best tip is to practice a few times on a scrap of your fabric that you’ve folded in half just like the waistband to learn how to do a buttonhole. I got the hang of it quickly and now I love making them 😄 Also, I think I mentioned this in the video but if you’re using a really light fabric and it seems like the buttonhole isn’t sewing right because the fabric is too light, you can put a small piece of interfacing on the back of the waistband where you’re sewing the buttonhole and that will strengthen the fabric so it sews better! Good luck, you’ve got this!

[@arianaracquel2521]

Comicat Creations I appreciate that! I JUST started sewing and used your halter top video to make my own! And I did it!! So this is my next project and it looks so daunting but I’m gonna go for it! Thank you!!
