Nadira037 | DIY | High Low Maxi Circle Skirt Tutorial

NEW sewing tutorial for this High Low Maxi Circle Skirt. This is not my first circle skirt tutorial so I did a quick explanation on how to draft your pattern. Definitely check out my other tutorials for more detailed info. You can watch my DIY Maxi Dress Tutorial here starting at 5:24 for the explanation. I also have a tutorial on how to make a circle skirt using a bed sheet, one of my faves.

Comment below I LOVE LAMP! if you read the description box because that means you're awesome! 😉

[@Misikat]

Nice easy-to-follow tutorial. I do have a few suggestions, however. First, as many others have commented, either use different coloured paper or a different coloured background to make things easier to see. Second, if you sew the back seam of the waistband first and then sew the bottom edges together, you'll end up with a much nicer look with the back seam hidden inside. Third, any time you make a skirt or dress that has a hem cut on the bias (circle skirts obviously fall into this category), it's always best to let them hang from a skirt hanger for a couple of days before hemming. This will give the garment time to stretch out along the bias and you can then double-check the hem and recut the necessary areas to make it even again. This is such an important step that often goes forgotten even in some professional garments. Trust me, though, it makes all the difference in the world!

[@TheZubaali]

"Do you want a tutorial for....." I want a tutorial for everything!!! lol

[@Nadira037]

Haha you got it! More tutorials coming soon 😉😊

[@impressivechaos3542]

I have a quick question 😊 when we divide our waist measurement by 6.28 are we dividing the measurement after we subtract the 3”-5”?

[@BionicBear88]

This skirt is so beautiful! 😍 I love how it's a high-low, but the length change isn't awkward or drastic. It kinda reminds me of Late Victorian/Edwardian walking skirts. It's long and elegant but there's not excess fabric that you can trip on, and you can show off some cute shoes. 😍 And the way that you explain everything so thoroughly and have visuals is everything! Thank you so much for sharing! ... Also can we take a moment to appreciate how tiny and adorable the proportions are to fit your cute little girl!?! My inner monologue just kept saying, "Awwwww! It's so tiny!". Lol. B.T.Dubs, I love lamp! 😘

[@specialCraftsandmore]

csnt really see u should have a different color for the background since it is white on white

[@TheJewelsparkles]

I agree

[@yuya5626]

Yes

[@KellseyH]

I love lamp! I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH. I'm watching videos to make a mommy and me dresses for my daughters first birthday. Thank you!

[@CasandraGolden]

I'm 5'11 I have watched this video 50 time thinking I was too tall for it to fit on me like this but I watched your other videos and see your just as tall as I am!! I found the most beautiful material to try this out on!!! Hope mine come out just as good. I'm a sucker for modesty so the 7' waistband is perfect for me

[@wildaprice8715]

The skirt is soooo beautiful.

[@graceogden8459]

Haven't even been subbed for an hour and I'm obsessed!! so many ideas and tricks!

[@flordelelle]

shoukran :) attempting my first ever skirt... bought the sewing machine yesterday and managed a straight-ish line... this should be fun

[@tadanielle3898]

honestly, i would have been so lost in this process without your videos 💜😊

[@Nadira037]

Aww that’s awesome, glad I could help ☺️❤️

[@cinderface]

I just found this channel and now I know what I’m doing for all my clothes 😂, thank you for this content!

[@beauti60]

Wow your daughters dress is just Fabulous.

[@Nadira037]

Thank you so much 😊

[@norma9548]

Wow, very easy to follow and very talented. Thank you.

[@tauheedahmuhammad1507]

As Salaam Alaikum Nadira! I just love your tutorials...they're so helpful. Just a little advice....next time please use a darker background for contrast that way we can see the pattern pieces better. Thanks and keep up the good work.....peeeeace!

[@shahidulhaq6883]

Very nice

[@Coco291984]

[@coralrose6506]

Yes a crop top tutorial would be greatly appreciated

[@christinemylinh]

Found your video through the suggested videos and I am so glad that I did! Great informative video, its so nice to see how other fellow sewers work! Love your content and keep it up! xoxo

[@AdirondackRuby]

This is so beautiful. I will definitely try this, once I get space to set my sewing machine out. I feel like the more drastic high-low skirts just look so weird on me, so something more modest and subtle is a perfect way to wear something trendy without feeling self-conscious.

[@rerecmbraggs]

Love this skirt. Will be trying it out for myself!

[@zallury1]

i Love The Paper Example Make So Much Easier To See And Understand

[@savingmyself8802]

Which type of fabric would be a good choice to get that flow/swing effect?

[@krystamonique47]

Yay! White paper on a white table. My eyes don't hurt

[@RtheBRB]

[@withlovestephaniedenise7024]

no need for calculations, i included an app, by circle skirt london that calculates and gives you a diagram of it

[@diouanwahiba]

what is the name of the app? thank you.

[@meriam832]

The app is called circle skirt calculator, you can google it and it's the first result. I use it all the time too.

[@rachellmaria3713]

great tutorial! making this now

[@tkk9311]

ilysm nadira u r sooo talented😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😙😙😙😙😙😙😘😚😘😘😚

[@yvettebooth67]

Yes i would like to see a tutorial on that crop top. All of your clothing tutorial is beautiful even for women with curves, like myself. I know you said in the video that you did not measure the cut the curve of the skirt you estimate but how far should i cut it to make that same back dramatic look you had? Thanks

[@elenazaf97]

Thanks for the nice video. I would like to ask something. The blue fabric is elastic. Is the white fabric you are wearing elastic? The white skirt did not need a zipper?

[@marylum277]

Very beautiful thank you so much god blesse you 🙏❤

[@spacemom6908]

Gorgeous! Can't wait to try and recreate this! Please continue to make more tutorials for us

[@IMOO1896]

Awesome, very clear instructions!

[@shawnyv1046]

[@newnormtrump7519]

DO YOU PUT YOUR OWN LABELS IN THE THINGS YOU MAKE BECAUSE YOU SHOULD AND IT IS REAL EASY

[@Lvirgil35]

Yes a tutorial for the crop top would be great!

[@briandagonzalez9477]

Amazing skirt!! Very easy tutorial!! Thank you for sharing😍😍👏👏❤❤

[@ruhaniverma5302]

Omg I r so talented....... lovely yr

[@onenmeserv4528]

yes tutorial of the crop top please.

[@TheMimilovato]

I love lamp haha i read all the description box I really want to see the tutorial for the opened abbaya which is on trend right now If it is possible of course keep up the good work girl :))))

[@Ash.Says.Y3s]

Is there a specific fabric you would recommend?

[@micheletyner3126]

Super helpful videos girl and love the long coat or avia? spelling?

[@lilianhoulind723]

Looks fantastic...on you

[@Katrinika]

How come the waistband stretches? I know the jersey is stretchy, but the thread isn't. Whenever I try to make a skirt, I can't put it on because the stitching of the skirt to the waistband doesn't allow the fabric to stretch for me to fit through.

[@saeedh24]

I had this trouble too, I think your supposed to use a zigzag stitch but I'm not sure lol

[@knowdaqueen177]

@@saeedh24 you're definitely supposed to use a stretch/zig zag stitch

[@geminifoxpoetry]

Love your style. thank you for sharing

[@ashleyg5008]

You are the first black sewist I've found on youtube, I've been watching your videos for hours and you've inspired me to finally save up for a sewing machine. I can't wait to make my first circle skirt with pockets! I'm a little obsessed with pockets in skirts. I love your videos. :)

[@ruqqaya.6707]

What does black has to do with this? Does colour make a different 🤔? I really don't know why skin colour has to be mentioned.

[@zubaidahfarhan3465]

A tutorial for the crop top ! And your shoes are so cute ♥♥

[@MsTinel1]

Love your videos. Next time if you pick a contrast background from the paper sample portion of the video, it will help us to see a bit better.

[@helenaa.8588]

Hi Nadira! I just found your channel. Can I make a suggestions? Next time you work with white paper, please use a black background so we can see better! :D Love this skirt!

[@pr3ttynblack2011]

As salaamu Alaiki can you make a tutorial on making a swing/circle skirt pattern plz. Insha Allah....love your tutorials!

[@Hunlover123601]

found you just now and i am going to binge watch your tutorials cause my goodness its like your hands are golden with the things you make!

[@erzascarlet8171]

hi can you plz use drak colour background or dark colour paper

[@williamscatherine28]

am making this today. yess. thank you.

[@rimsa1197]

Salam sister, what kind of fabric did you use for the white skirt?

[@annie7789]

Chouchoula Rimsa Jersey fabric

[@keishadavis8360]

cute tutorial but I wished if u would've done yours. easy to follow.

[@MsErilu]

When you unfold the fabric that comes folded in half on the bolt. What is that measurement? The fabric I bought is 22" folded, so once I unfold it it's double that size. I'd like the length on my skirt to be 39" and my waist size is 40" . What am I doing wrong? Please help.... : /

[@newnormtrump7519]

IN YOUR NEW VIDEOS CAN YOU TELL US WHAT KIND OF MATERIAL YOU USED

[@MarieRichardBasket]

Love it and ILOVE LAMP 😉 what is the fabric you used for the white dress you show at the beginning? Thanks

[@Nadira037]

First, you’re awesome! ❤️ The fabric is a pointe de roma and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! ☺️

[@monicagrissette4047]

can you please make a tutorial for your crop top? Thanks

[@toptip8564]

beautiful

[@GirlandherFish]

I would love for you to do a full length overhead abaya

[@Ashley11Webb]

This is amazing!! I love maxi hi-low skirts like that but sadly I lack the common sense to learn to sow like that. haha but seriously how much do you want lol i will pay you to make that for me

[@mariedavis28]

THANK YOU! This was perfect! So easy to follow. Side note* i love that you didn’t show your daughters face ;) even if it wasn’t your intention, I felt like it was a protective mommy move 💞

[@Nadira037]

Awesome, glad it was helpful.😊 Thank you so much for watching! And yes I don't show her face just to keep her protected/safe ❣️❣️❣️

[@lovebubblygrace]

about how many yards did you end up using for your adult size skirt?

[@emmafrodl781]

How much fabric did you use for your white skirt?

[@aremumercy5065]

Please how many yards did you use for your own skirt not your daughters'

[@xxpiratesforeverxx]

Beautiful!

[@nachobizz1]

I like this but it would be easier to see with a darker background and a darker ribbon

[@lxighann]

Youre so cute!! Thx for the tutorial!

[@ostarbello]

Just fyi! 6.28 is called tau, which is pi*2 !

[@aiyaahuu1476]

why white paper on white table...can't see

[@piusosaijate9608]

please what sewing machine did you use

[@withlovestephaniedenise7024]

Thanks, but how do you make a train. i made a dress, all was good, but the side seams didn't match. thanks

[@dianapulido1807]

I love the look of your skirt and top. Please show us how to do the top. You look so elegant. Your explanations are so easy to follow that I believe I can do this. By the way l have only made one outfit and it was for my daughter about 18 years ago. I do fix hems and holes in pockets and other places. Thank-you for teaching us.

[@nomusicnolife117]

What fabric did you use to make your white skirt? It falls sooo beautifully :)

[@Nadira037]

Link to blog post with that info in the description box 😉

[@nomusicnolife117]

Thank you :D

[@lorelig]

Your videos are so inspiring! I've only made mini to midi length circle skirts before, but now I have to try a maxi, that drape is just so beautiful.

[@craziez2011]

Hey what kind of serger do you suggest for a beginner? I asked a seamstress and she wanted me to put down 500$ on one and I can't do that lol.

[@rhoda1051]

I've never sewed before and I really want to make this skirt for my junior prom. I got everything else down but the pattern part is sooooooo confusing. I need help.

[@christinejoyalmasco69]

what kind of fabric did you use in your white skirt?

[@Thejournal-t7e]

Fantastic!!!

[@Nadira037]

Thank you! ❤️

[@zanesharakeib664]

Nadira037 Assalau Alaikum. love your tutorial, I may try my hand in making a skirt. The white background doesn't work.

[@Kakes6817]

Looking for pattern for high low skirt.

[@justclipitbarbers7010]

great teaching but the white paper with another paper make it hard to see what you doing....

[@cindycoven1]

Even though I am much, much older than you, I love your site. Many of your DIY projects can be worn by any age. I would love to see more repurpose clothing projects. LOVE THEM!

[@fm7_-]

soo much math... *vomits* THOUGH I LOVED THE TUTORIAL!!!

[@rumamoon]

@Nadira037 Salam sister! On (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYeZf5KnarB5fck) video at 6:23 minutes you showed the calculation. I don't understand why you need the "C" measurement? Because on your circle skirt video which is made by bedsheet, and also in this one you only used the "B" measurement. Why on that video you multiplied the "B" measurement with 2 and had "C" and you cut the fabric using "C" measurement? Please explain.

[@AnnaBTsatokeEmpress]

Nadira...want to make this particular shirt in a netting... however I am a size 22...lol....we are talking about ALOT of netting....can I do it....using this instruction?

[@sunflowercloud9115]

How do you know how much fabric you need? I am 5'2" and can never get the amount of fabric right. I know I need 1 3/4 yards for a pencil skirt, so how much for a circle skirt with a lot of flow.. like this one!?? Please help, thank you.

[@francelia1129]

gonna make one for my music video, thanks i love it good job

[@Jaisha26]

Hello! I'm sorry I don't quite understand what the first piece of fabric is for?? I don't think I caught anything about starting out with folded material or with just an open piece of fabric?? Why are we cutting this first piece if we are making two more that completes the circle skirt? Was the first piece a pattern only? The skirt is veryyy beautiful. Thanks for sharing the tutorial.

[@amparogalaviz4230]

facil y elegante!!!!

[@donnishacobble]

love your instructions but just a little tip.. white paper on a white background doesn't help us see what you are doing very well lol.. otherwise im gonna try thisgreat job!

[@lessismore3944]

Unsure if you mentioned it or not, but what type of material did you use for your daughters skirt? Please keep the sewing videos COMING!!!

[@madhumitamukerje5682]

Wonderful dear ♥ Maybe you should have colored paper and contrasting shades to show up better on video. It makes it easier to follow.

[@333moki]

Are you sure it’s waist minus that much .? I worry it won’t be enough space in hips when you put it on. So beautiful my favourite ever skirt.. still not made it I want few at least😊..

[@edwardk1343]

I'm making this is was wondering if you said 6 yards for the skirt?Isn't that a lot of fabric?

[@jenniefinken]

Do you have a printable pattern? I don't sew but someone I know is going to make this for me for a photoshoot I am photographing! PS it's​ beautiful!

[@tsaiyana]

if you don't have a surger....what stitch should be used?

[@Nadira037]

You can use a zig zag stitch

[@MAG-lg4es]

Hey Nadira thnx for the tutorial. I have a suggestion tho next time u are using paper pattern kindly use a dark background or dark paper bcuz the white background and white paper gets a lil hard to understand

[@kellymontgomery8603]

Where u purchase the knit print fabric from... I found the same print in duck canvas but curious where I can purchase that knit from???

[@naginamohammadi6095]

This was a nice tutorial but maybe next time could you please use a different colour paper because the white paper on white background cannot be seen properly. Thank you!

[@FranKy_CranKy]

A tutorial for shirt dress please! Your tutorials are so easy to follow. It makes me want to sew right away.😘

[@TAPATIOGIRL]

I need to make a skirt for my project and if you can may you give me an idea for a skirt for Iris the godness of rainbows i need to dress like her and i need a skirt but i want it half cut but if its possible can you please tell me and thanks
