    Is it just me or is the sound of the fabric being cut so satisfying?

    Just a small tip. Always iron your fabric before cutting and also iron after seeing seems to get it absolutely smooth and perfect!😁

    Omg no video ive ever watched has told me to iron the invisible zipper flat or even marked that line so that it's easier for me to understand where the needle should be going. I've always wondered how close the needle should get to the teeth. this was SO helpful. i love your videos !!!

    Grest idea! Just a tip for anyone who has a bigger size or different body shape: it might help to make some darts in the front and/or back. The fabric will crumple less and it'll give more space for hips and booty.

    Very nice, I never thought of converting the bottom part of the pens into a skirt, I thought only top part could turn into skirt or shorts. So I guess with one pens I can make 2 skirts, or short pens and a skirt. I used to make short pens out of long pens and then throw away the pens sleeves into the trash, but now I'll try to make a skirt out of them. I'll check your other videos now.

    1. Ironing the fabric would be a good idea:)
    2. Does it matter that you cut your belt alongside the fabric, not across?
    3. Easier to put that zipper in the seam
    4. Thank you! Great skirt!
