DIY // Simple Pencil Skirt

[@sidebuns]

There's a ton of great sewing youtubers out there, but your channel is by far the best. You're so easy to understand and you make the process so relaxing.

[@ivankafonseka]

I just started sewing and I have found this channel so helpful! I really love your style and can’t wait to make some new pieces ❤️

[@TheEssentialsClub]

That's so awesome to hear!! Thank you x x

[@lilyheinrich7646]

I love how excited you get once you finish each garment!

[@TheEssentialsClub]

haha it honestly makes me so happy seeing the final garment!!

[@Valentina-yx7vv]

Whenever I don't know what to sew, I reach for your videos for some inspiration. Your vibes just 👌

[@aldusadusa5877]

Okay but of all the videos about how to make a french seam, finally i understand how with yours, the best tutorial video tbh

[@wassila_mlck]

So funny ! Cause in french we say "couture à l'anglaise" which means "English seam" lol. Btw, thank You for all your nice videos !!

[@ebunsoderu8409]

This is the BEST sewing tutorial I’ve ever seen I learned so much

[@bowerbirdstyle7661]

Skirt looks great especially with the orange shirt.

[@sarinatowers8357]

Some awesome techniques explained in this - I needed to know how to line a garment and French seam for my next project and you explained both beautifully 🤍

[@TheEssentialsClub]

Yay! So glad I could help uncover these techniques for you :)

[@bowerbirdstyle7661]

You can also make two skirts then put one inside the other (wrong sides together) and stitch them at the waist.

[@sagi5237]

[@forestfriend]

@@TheEssentialsClub Ofcourse, I know how much work it is to make a good and easy to understand video like this! Well done🌻☺️

[@mjug0122]

So beautiful. Your tutorial makes me motivated to start my new projects.

[@skiijeu]

[@hannahgrace5608]

[@InaTrendyTown]

[@myreachalil2115]

I've been wanting to make a skirt like this! Thank you so much!

[@gennysamuel9075]

Love this! Literally have the perfect fabric for this❤️

[@reaganhine7952]

Love this!!

[@nishkap108]

I love this chanel!!!

[@TheEssentialsClub]

Too kind!! Thank you x

[@Isabel-hl1jy]

you have a button hole setting on your machine. its the 1 2 3 setting on the dial which denotes each button side and on the stitch length is the rectangle setting. the skirt looks great!!

[@rina9691]

I want to start sewing i am trying this

[@thaniyiamano8817]

I just made a skirt after following this tutorial and it turned out so nice!! Would love to make another one but this time with pockets, just need to figure out the pockets part 😭

[@sarawalker4849]

Patch pockets.

[@breeliang5616]

Not sure if you've already got something but Rosery Apparel just did a skirt w pockets. I'm planning to merge the 2 tutorials haha

[@reaganhine7952]

I don’t think pockets would be too hard to add at all! It would probably be a lot easier to do pockets using regular seams instead of the French seams

[@flopy111]

do i have to fold it at the width or ar the leght?

[@bridgitteblanche1266]

i have a question does the 4 inch seam allowance take into account that its a french seam? or should i add more seam allowance if i want to do french seams?

[@TheEssentialsClub]

The 4 inches was taking into account the french seam procedure :)

[@kaylahutton2728]

My only issue with this tutorial is that the way waistband band had raw edge exposed. So instead I sandwiched the raw edge in between the two sides of the waistband. I didn’t follow the instructions to sew the waistband and turn right side out. But otherwise I was super happy with the outcome

[@bernadettek7816]

where do you buy your materials?

[@sherlyn7189]

i don’t know where she got them but i’m sure you can find them at ur local craft store like micheals or joanns or online on amazon

[@Jo-sj4uq]

Hello, loved the video, please make some biker shorts.

[@fs3633]

Can I use stretchy fabric for this tutorial?

[@TheEssentialsClub]

That shouldn't be a problem at all. Just will need to make sure you have the right needle and machine settings so that it doesn't become annoying - as stretch fabric can be a bit frustrating especially when sewing a zipper!

[@thatfashion4596]

"A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of the sheep."

[@sarawalker4849]

Is the zipper supposed to be a centered zipper or lapped zipper? The way you pinned it in the video is a little confusing.

[@Squatchygal]

Yes!!

[@rickyandrews8409]

I want to like to have friends that are girls that girls to wear that skirt and dress outfit

[@emilyrose728]

This is interlining not lining.
