Kickin. Straight to the point with no messing around and a humor to boot.

[@nevroth]

From an almost 27yr peruvian american woman, good luck, you can do it!!

[@dixie162003]

You just saved my life I think. I've been wondering how to do all of these for a while but didn't have a clue where to start. Thank you so much!!

[@divinefeminine8639]

ive only taken up sewing this pandemic and i gotta say this is probably one of the most comprehensive no bs tutorial on elastics thats very easy to understand. many thanks!

[@Ravermom666]

Thank you from a 56 year old half Native American woman!! I didn't know how easy they were to do!!

[@johnandevefoster3816]

thank you, THANK You! THANK YOU! great information without the need to fast-forward thru all the unnecessary information! I love to sew. I used to do all hand sewing. I got to a point where I no longer had the will to sew but still had the desire to create. So, I bought a sewing machine. Now I never want to stop! First, I just winged it. Then I started watching KZbin videos...nothing is worse than listening to LONG DRAWN-OUT LECTURES on how to do something! it's actually gives me a type of "road rage". I don't act out the behavior I just feel it. Yes, I subscribed ... I am going to you from now on! 😍😉🤗 😊😌

[@jordinsimonelifts]

I am a person who really really really wants to be a fashion designer when i get older adn i have tryed to sew and use elastic but i havent had much success, watching this video gave me hope in my mind and heart that i can do it and all i need to do is just work at it to accomplish. Thankyou very very much .

[@babykatd1]

"Beginners need to measure before you start b.s'ing your stuff" LOL Wise words! great vid, I am teaching myself the basics and your clip was very clear and concise. Thanks.

[@flormcq]

Thank you from a 37 year old peruvian woman learning how to sew, you are great!

[@sanesauce]

This is one of the videos which are concise without unnecessary rantings. Straight to the point and very very informative! Thank you so very much for your video!

[@MaidOfCake]

I just recently bought a new sewing machine because my old one is not even worth fixing because it was so cheap. I love pretty much every video that you've posted because it's helped me learn something even if it was just a little bit.

[@brandcc]

Love that you talk fast, usually I'm having to speed through the tutorial cause they drag on forever. Thank you,

[@KorinaSarri]

I wish i had seen your video a few months ago. So many questions have been answered! I loved that in the end you presented examples of real clothes!

[@Petite43]

OMG!! I wish I found you before I added some elastic to some jeans , I add some extra fabric on the side of each pants, and I did a basic stitch, this is a game changer for me. Thank you...

[@imaginecreatebe]

Thank you so much! I'm a novice, and I have to make my own costumes for dance performances, and I'm so happy to have found a video with multiple techniques that are explained so clearly :) You're awesome!

[@delicatebiscuit]

Thank you for making this video! I am a big girl and I don't have money to buy clothing, but my bf just got me a sewing machine for my birthday and I have LOTS of fabric and stuff leftover from an attempt to learn to sew when I was in high school!

[@alicepooley1345]

Excellent tutorial - I thought I knew it all but didn't remember about hand winding elastic onto bobbin so good job I decided to look on You Tube before starting! Thank you so much!

[@aznemma4]

All I gotta say is: I love you!! I'm always doing random things and I can always find advice from your videos!! My one stop shop!! Love ya!!

[@chlo.rin.e]

[@cathynewell3269]

Thank you so much ! I have been watching lots of videos on shirring without a gathering foot and your technique was the only one that worked for me. Thanks

[@BlweLotus]

YOU'RE SO SMART o.O I was seriously blown away... Usually when I watch KZbin videos, I only pay half attention because I'm multitasking but WOW... You are just so smart :D

[@fishyzneedle]

this is so awesome! very informative and easy to understand.. i love your sewing tutorials.. they make sewing seem not scary.. i'm still afraid of my machine but your tips help make hand sewing a little bit easier.. i'm hoping to get over my machine phobias, and with every video i watch i feel like i can do it! thank you! please don't stop! you're a really great teacher!!

[@ambermay7032]

Than-you for this. Ive been a bit stuck on how to use elastic for a project I'm doing. I now have some great ideas to try.

[@motherbirdhanji532]

Your amazing! I'm part of quite a large cosplay group and also a dance company all the costumes are so expensive and I'm not to bad on a sewing machine so I said I'd make the costumes. Your videos have always helped me with things, like collar making, raw edges or just anything that I'd a but rusty on. THANK YOU :D

[@queenvicmcg]

I love that you talked fast! Sometimes I think that videos are too long and drawn out. You kept my interest, and I believe that your fast talking helped me to not leave before you were done. Thanx for sharing your sewing techniques. I look forward to finding more!

[@musiholictara]

A little faster than I am accustomed to but very informative! Good job! Thanks for making.

[@IODsally]

You are an amazingly gifted teacher. Straight to the point, easy to listen to and understand. You clearly know your stuff! I'm going to follow your videos ;) I'm still learning to sew and your style of teaching is PERFECT for me! THANKS!

[@theristia]

Using elastic thread never even crossed my mind. Thank you so much, learning that helped me solve questions for like three different projects I was stuck on!

[@Mom2MyDearBaby]

Had a hard time with this at first and have no reason why. You video helped so much. Thanks!!

[@SmileIdoitTomboy]

So many videos! I went from your newest video to another headband video to this!

[@GrammaDestiny]

Very, very good video tutorial! You zoomed in on the details and were extremely clear in your verbal instruction. I also like that you included examples of how the techniques could be used in actual garments. Great job - and thank you very much!

[@ytyler123]

I appreciate all the techniques you gave. You got right to the point, spoke good english where I could understand you, the demonstrations were wonderful and I will now subscribe.

[@clementinemalatji]

You're a lifesaver, been searching for videos because I want to make skirts and trousers for my Lil girl and I want them to stretch on waist

[@patbee5475]

Excellent video! I like that you kept the pace quick and to the point. Thank you!

[@michelledarkling6690]

OMG! You make it look so easy! Great video! I've sewn by hand for years and recently bought my first machine... This video was VERY helpful!

[@wildkims2008]

[@farahfhh5457]

Thank you... You're a life saver 😘😘 I've been looking for this method NOT the safety pins thingy... Thank u so much... Appreciates this....

[@kittyfisherxo]

7 techniques. straight to the point, and actually helpful. thank you🙏

[@blightowl3908]

Thanks for making this! I've never sewn with elastic before and having all these techniques now at my disposal will be very helpful! Good on you :)

[@thehapagirl92]

The scrunchie idea is a great idea for shoulder straps that you require stretch and width in. I've been making hair scrunchies forever and never thought to use that same technique for shoulder straps!

[@carolkrenn5754]

Brilliant. Fast and straight to the point. Very clear aswell. Loved it.

[@queenkaui]

Thank you! i LOVE your sewing videos, especially these tips for beginners because my grandma doesnt want to teach me so I have to learn on my own. Please make more of these tutorials!!!

[@dianedeforest2052]

I have always wondered how to properly put in an elastic the basic I can do but the shearing is so easy to do thanks to you!

[@alisonmaschmeier8850]

Fantastic tutorial! Great voice, easy to understand, and very informative I love the 2nd one of how to zig zag it and then fold it over and stitch again. I made my first maxi skirt (my first anything actually) last night and stitched my hem and then pushed the elastic through. Because of it being a maxi skirt, I had a ton of material to push the elastic through so it would look pleated and it took me over an hour! I was so frustrated. This seems much easier.

[@CoconutFarms]

I love your tutorials. Tutorials specifically for sewing basics are so helpful. Thank you!

[@smellmycoffee]

Best elastic tutorial on KZbin!

[@wendydiegel-breen8036]

[@missmookus]

[@igy0719]

Wow! Very helpful! I have always had a problem with elastic. Thank you so much!

[@NotOfThisAge]

This is great! I'm really learning a lot from your sewing basics videos. Keep them up. Lots of love.

[@xywiina]

I'm so happy we're all getting back into this KL groove.

[@empress4lyphe]

Thank you thank you thank you...I cut a dress recently because it was obviously from way back in the days (my great grandma gave me) with ruffles from top to bottom. This isn't our (me and my sis) kind of style but I was inspired by it the other day to make a ruffled top. So snip snip. But then I realized I could make a ruffled skirt with the last two ruffles I had cut off to make the top. I was planning to use elastic and just wig it and pray it comes out well but now I have this video!

[@myprettymocha]

It's people like you that makes KZbin so great! Thank you so much for sharing! I've used a couple of the techniques but I just learned a lot more! I love your tutorials!!:-)

[@PhillipLandmeier]

Wow. Great video. Whew. A ton of information that I was looking for in one high-speed video. I'm out of breath, Hahaha. Fantastic. Thanks for posting this.

[@JaclynSky88]

I have always wanted to these techniques! I plan on making lots of spring/summer looks & a duvet!! Ty so much for doing this :)

[@cayehursey]

Excellent! I wish I had looked at this before taking all the old elastic out!

[@TRAYcee03]

Thank you so much for this! I just started sewing and am having a very hard time with elastics. This will help a lot!

[@PYN111]

Excellent tutorial! A lot of info...Quick and easy! I like that it goes fast, you can always PAUSE the explaination. When tutorials go too slowly, I'm clicking out looking for something quicker! I have favorite sheets still in good shape but the fitted ones need the elastic refreshed...this was perfect! Several good posibilities for what I need! Thanks, xop

[@thegaryjay_yt]

Wow, you are a wealth of knowledge. Thank you so much for sharing this video. It honestly opened up a world of new ideas for me.

[@mrpookz]

[@nikolove143]

You are awesome and have a fun personality. I can watch you all day :)

[@ellashNL]

[@bluegemini24]

[@RaisaIbex]
