How to Sew a Flat Waistband on Skirt with Zipper

[@drkatel]

So professional. I'm a beginner afflicted with perfectionism, which is frustrating because despite much patience, I just don't have the experience to know the tricks. This is the perfect video for me and it's saved in my playlist so I can find it when I'm ready for this step. First, I must install my very first zipper. Thank God for KZbin. I wish I had taken up sewing before losing my very skilled mom. ❤️

[@sewway]

Thank you

[@parveensham1970]

Me too same problem

[@jori7398]

I’m betting that I’ll end up sewing myself into the skirt in my hotel room on the day of the event.💕😉🤭💕

[@lisamccaff9217]

Look for the Threads video by Kenneth D King for installation of invisible zippers. Takes a little longer but the results are worth it.

[@ericagerrard2099]

A truly exceptional tutorial with exactly the results I’m looking for. The attention to detail is appreciated. Easily the best and clearest I have found. Very happy to subscribe.

[@alexhawkhead]

Your tutorials are so good and I love that you don’t feel the need to narrate over the whole thing - thank you, really

[@sewway]

Thanks

[@josephinejosilixkugel5661]

I bought a sewing pattern without images / only text for instruction and as a beginner, I was so confused by the belt part being separated from the zipper and connected with a button. I didn't understand what I was supposed to do but this video solved all my problems. Thank you so much for this amazing video tutorial! I'm excited to finish my skirt now :)

[@kileyainsworth1023]

This saved me from scrapping my whole project at the very end! Cannot thank you enough!

The hardest part of sewing clothes is finishing step. Frustration and tiredness usually appear. I am very happy that my video gave you strength.

[@sewway]

Thank you

[@hithere7282]

Neat work and great tutorial.

[@angela22612]

Thank you! How do you determine how far from the raw edge to sew the longer side (where you used chalk)? I’m having issues that when I turn out the waist band that side is shorter than the other side.

[@sewway]

There are no exact answers on how to do this or that. Everything needs to be learned. To minimize discrepancies, sweep all seams with a thread.

[@bayfilly1]

Nicely done !! Whose music? Thanks for the tutorial !!

[@katienoiset7960]

Are we supposed to just measure around her waist and add a few inches in the use that

[@raebutler4406]

What about the serged edge that was sticking out on the inside though?

[@damarisguerrero-h3j]

Que profesional gracias ❤❤

[@level2456]

Thanks for the video. Kindly clarify why the waist band is straight. Was is not supposed to be curvy for better fit?

[@sewway]

No, not necessarily. But there are also such curvy the waist band.

[@xXxxpunkprincessxXx]

Do you add the waist band at the end when you already sew the skirt together or do you add it before closing the sides of your skirt

[@carolinemusizvingoza9482]

[@mjaf]

just wow!!

[@parkerasel8129]

4:00 why did u hand-sew loosely before sewing over

[@sewway]

To prevent the fabric from shifting while sewing on a sewing machine

[@miscellaneouscell]

This is a stupid question, but why do some garments have overlap on the waistband and others do not? Is there a rule? What are the pros and cons?

[@sewway]

If a waistband has a button then the waistband has overlap.

[@soryaaboelelaa7163]

Very good

[@qhudsia]

What was the hammer for? Good video btw :)

[@sewway]

A hammer is needed to soften the seams

My DD's new school skirt is too big in the waist but just fine in length, she's tall for her age. I put some elastic inside the waistband but not sure the best way to secure it. Have you done a video on this?

I assume this is for people who already have a better knowledge of sewing than me because I'm a beginner and have no idea what is going on, I've made some skirts with elastic waistbands and thought I'd try a zipper, need some narration I guess because I'm lost.

[@andrewhepburn5883]

tbh if she can explain a little bit and do it a little bit slower will be perfect. It may not super helpful for beginners.
