Karina how you inspire us! Thank you for all you share. I made a flannel shirt out of a plaid for my son this winter. Matching and layout took many many hours!

[@elaine1250]

I just cut out my first skirt on the bias and followed your tips , so much easier once you know how , we would be lost without your guidance Karina , thankyou so much for sharing 😆👍🏻!!!

[@monikawidensky8815]

You are so quick with all your projects. Wow! I am away from my machine for 3 months, but still collect inspiration from you. And I also collect fabric from my summer travel trips. So far I bought some fabric in Madrid and Barcelona. Let’s see if I can also find something in Prague and Florence. This will be a busy sewing winter!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

How fun to have fabric souvenirs! They will be extra special when they become garments. Thanks for watching 😊.

[@kscheuerman5378]

Karina, Thanks for all the tips, I'm sure they will help everyone sewing things on the bias!! Your skirt is so pretty! I am amazed at the things you can do with striped fabric. Thanks for sharing it all! Take care & God Bless.

Stripes are amazing and you’ll rarely see me make it horizontally he he. Thank you so much for watching 😀

Great matching up of the stripes and very well explained! Thank you!!! I’m now gonna try this for myself! So I’ve saved this video to follow when I’m ready!!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

All the best. Thanks for watching 😊.

[@laurajones4088]

Karina, excellent tips for cutting/sewing on the bias and the skirt you made is gorgeous! I recently made a top using an ancient lightweight rayon blend "plaid" from my stash. Because of the difficulty of trying to figure out pattern matching, I placed the front on the bias and the rest on the straight grain. It took longer to cut out than to sew but was well worth the effort.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

I think bias cut is always worth the effort and not having to match is gold. This one was really fun. Thanks for watching 😊.

[@gillianwhaites5974]

Clever. Thankyou for sharing. The lace top you showed with the chevron skirt. Do you have a video showing that particular top. I’ve got some lace fabric to use and I don’t want to mess it up.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

That’s a very old RTW top I thrifted. It’s not a pattern but I want to recreate it with one :)

[@norakathleenbertoglio4414]

Love the skirt Karina and really love the white top! It is so lovely on you!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊. I now want other styles in white.

[@patgottshalk8808]

[@christinesmith7391]

Hi Karina. Another masterclass! Fabulous. 😊

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊

[@kimberlyturner520]

Really beautiful! Love the different tops with it! Gorgeous!!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊

[@crumpetsteaandsewing]

Hi Karina! Great tips! Love that dress you're wearing!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thanks! The dress is one of my all time faves.

[@islandsewcialist]

Wow! Seeing the behind the scenes of this skirt made me love it even more!! I'm not sure I have enough patience for stripe matching but just incase I ever decide I want to try it, this video will be great help! Thanks for the mention as well! :-)

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

I know bias skirts can be way easier without the stripe matching but I couldn’t get the chevrons out of my mind 😁. Thanks for watching 😊.

[@priscilamartins3826]

Wow, awesome skirt Karina. It looks so easy when you are doing it. I am sewing a chiffon dress at the moment and it is really testing my patience.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Chiffon is like that and I sometimes leave it and come back the next day. I also do hand basting and in the end saves me time. Thank you so much for watching ☺️

[@quiltygal6981]

I'm running out of adjectives to describe your sewing. So this will have to do. 😍😍😍😍😍😍 xx

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

I appreciate you 🤗🤗🤗

[@leejohnstone]

My gosh....this skirt is amazing! If this is easy sewing....I need to just quit now. Around the time you were showing the front that didn't match, my eyes rolled back in my head. VERY nicely done, indeed.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

I knew they weren’t going to match in the front but I wanted them to match on the sides. The contrast blue fixes that. This was extra fun to cut and the sewing was actually only a few seams :)

[@judym414]

Great tips...pretty skirt...lovely colors! In your intro your first garment is a pair of yellow cropped pants and a blue top. I have searched all your video tiles looking for the makes of those two items and cannot find them. Boy, there are a LOT of tiles to look at! :) Can you tell me what patterns they are....I really love that look. Thanks.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

The blue top is the Fringe top from Chalk and Notch and the yellow pants are thrifted RTW. I’ve looked for bottom weight yellow fabric for ages with the intent of making cropped pants and couldn’t find, so I couldn’t resist the thrifted ones :) Yes, there are hundreds of videos 😁

[@judym414]

@@LiftingPinsandNeedles Now this is funny! Got your reply. looked up the video, had previously watched AND LIKED it! Just missed the tile when I looked through them. Guess I'll go watch it again because I think there's about to be a Chalk & Notch pattern in my future. :) Thanks so much, Karina.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

No worries :)

[@texasproud8822]

Impressive!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊. The stripes make the skirt pop 😄

[@pollymaxwell5585]

Thank you, I learned a lot of helpful information.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

I’m so glad. Thank you so much 😊

[@oscar6443]

Love the skirt, very well thought out. Can I come and live next door to you 🐶

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊. I’d love to have neighbors who sew 😊.

[@elsatorrejon8442]

Thanks for your tips, very very practical. Kisses.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Kisses!

[@carolethorley9610]

Thank you 🙏x

[@olga6509]

Chevron stripes going upwards makes you look shorter.......when they point downwards it elongate your body and you look slimmer.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Aesthetic preferences are a personal decision and it’s the one I made for this skirt. The stripes going down are on the side seams. I am as always not focused on body shaming in my language and terminology like “looking slimmer”. It’s not the way I talk or live my life.
