It's very easy to smock fabric with elastic thread just with your sewing machine!

[@frettnot]

I would highly recommend this tutorial for anyone who has basic sewing machine experience. Her explinations are very thorough and clear.

[@yeshuasbeloved549]

As someone who would like to learn how to sew (pre-sewer) watching this video was awesome! I never knew that's how they made those stretchy sundresses!

[@elizabethsawyer5906]

My 10 yr old wants to make a summer dress like this so this video was very useful. Thank you for posting it in English too!

[@MarinaBrumpton]

And again, fantastic, I especially like the animation on stitch formation, very well done.

[@judykelly4751]

Thank you so very much...this is awesome ! I have been wondering if i could do this on my sewing machine. I am making some vintage bonnets and wanted to do smocking on them. If i use flat lace will i have to ruffle it first? Thank you Judy Kelly

[@jkaryn]

Excellent video! Thank you!

[@kscamara123]

Great tutorial!

[@annedaniel5256]

This is shirring. Smocking is handstitched and does not require elastic thread.

[@GeorgianNights]

I shall be trying this, thanks.

[@MsPartenos]

So einfach! )) And just what I need for my blouse )) Danke, Inna! ))

[@Dilukshi26]

Thank you so much

[@KamranKhan-kl6pj]

Hmm very easy good thank you dear

[@vaishalinaik5101]

please let me know what measurement can take for shirring or smoking

[@chummygirlchummygirl]

u just got a new subscriber,thumbs up

[@LL-ue5vg]

Great video. Thanks so much. I love you embroidered blouse. Did you make it and if so, can you point me towards the pattern?

[@lizburgess8128]

This is a good tutorial, but it is NOT smocking. It is shirring, a perfectly good technique in its own right. It has`some superficial visual similarities in appearance to the first stage of smocking, but no more.

[@charanya11]

wow.. its simple and understandable. a very good useful tutorial

[@user-ym4ke1tq1e]

@@charanya11 ...

[@narellecanchat]

​@charanya11 no one is suggesting the tutorial isn't clear and useful.... but it is definitely not a tutorial for smocking. It is shirring. Smocking is embroidery and was used to gather and decorate fabric long before showing elastic existed

[@sangiita1]

How much fabric we need in waist band

[@miw6091]

Hello! It was stated here that we need to decrease the needle thread tension but my sewing machine doesn't have one like yours. It does have a tension button but no numbers and I avoid fiddling with it because it messes up my sewing and is hard to fix. Also, my sewing machine only have one stitch, a double stitch. Can I also smock using my sewing machine?

[@fyah1987]

Great tutorial!!

[@renusharma-sr6gh]

superb idea Mem superb 🤗🤗😘 😘 thankful 🤗

[@savithrachathurangani6093]

Thank you ❤️

[@whiteemic]

How do you ensure that your elastic thread lies flat on the bottom? Mine wants to bunch up no matter what settings I put it on...

[@sayudiniarts9589]

super video

[@dolapss1]

Wish you had shown us how ro prepare the fabric for smorking as in measurements

[@anuradhakumbhare4890]

[@mayraespiritu5670]

Hello...I love you tutorial sew....can you do tutorial how to do smocking dress with sewing machine...

[@usmanifarhan4340]

Is this work done in Dubai or not? 

[@sarahclassicsewing]

Cute video, but this is shirring... not smocking. Smocking can only be done by hand. It involves no elastic thread either.

I have the machine of elastic smoking and thread smoking of 24 needle machine

[@ravindrachaudhari7805]

aur ye elestic thread milte hei kya please information mam me pallavi chaudhari

[@sunfl0wer69]

Does anyone know how much you need to alter fabric dimensions. E.g if making a skirt for a waist of 24" how much extra wide should it be if doing this shirring technique? Thanks anyone!

[@ericaese6603]

You should shirr first before taking measurements

[@embracethebright1587]

Do you have a tutorial for the top you are wearing?

[@levoy4ge]

[@adibashazi4219]

aqibahmad2015 birth2015 yes, it can b done by a simple machine as well. some 40 years back, our mothers also used to do it.

[@Carol-Bell]

This is the third video of yours I have discovered. They're very good, and the English voiceover is very good. I do speak and read some German, but I would like to know if you have English pattern instructions ? And do you have an English website? Your demonstrations are very good and clear, so I think I could learn from a tutorial in German too. Just wondering how much English there is:)
