I love that she shows multiple ways to alter garments. Not every method works for every garment, so it’s great to have different techniques in our toolbox.
Yeah, people need to get a grip. Its just another technique she shared which will work out great in some cases, she never said it was the end all be all. This tutorial was helpful. The end.
When I did this, I got two-for-one. Had a high-quality lined full skirt from long ago that became too tight in the waist AND was now too long, because apparently I'm shrinking (LOL). Using this hack, the waist can now fit, and the hem length problem took care of itself :)
If the fabric you're working with is thin and soft, the waistline will stretch out and end up being too big. I sew a narrow twill tape (5 mm) inside the seam allowance close to the waist to control this even if I'm adding a facing or bias tape to finish the waistline.
this is a great idea! However, as a sewist, I would instead to face the waist with a homemade facing of another fabric, just flip it under, so the seam is hidden and you get a clean finish at the waistband plus facing will give you some stability. I’ve also stitched knit fabric or a thin elastic and flipped it over for the waistband b4.
I love this tutorial and it's so easy to follow! I never thought to do this much easier alteration, so I appreciate this video so much. I have a few skirts to work on that I thrifted and some I can definitely do this on. For a more advanced sewer (if you can't afford to lose length), you could make a contrasting waist band to add back the one inch removed in length and add hook and eyes to close the top above the zipper. But this is so much better for beginners and anyone who doesn't have time to do any extras. For non-picky people, who don't care what you do to their clothing as long as it fits, this will go a long way for tailors who sometimes fix things for their friends or family members too.
I love the reassurance you give throughout the process of re-fitting the waistline. The technique is wonderful and very useful knowledge. Still, your incredible kind reassurance, I think, truly helps people to become confident enough to try your great technique. Thanks!!!
Thank you for taking the time to advise the viewing public about using a bias binding as a facing before sewing in the waistline ,as there may be more stretching especially if the fabric is a stretchy one . ❤❤❤❤❤. Peace always.
Great option! I would def use matching bias tape at the waistband folder-over to make up for its narrower width, (compared to the skirt). Same would be true for lowering the hem; bias tape goes a long way in maximizing most of the fabric down there once you release the original hem.
I found this very interesting. I have a skirt that I love and I am in the same situation. Now I can go ahead and get my skirt fix so that I'll be able to wear it with joy. Thank you so much for this important information now that I have enrolled in a sewing class which will enable me to help others with the sa w problem. ❤❤❤❤
I outgrew a skirt i was saving and did not have sewing materials but i used heat bond and it worked amazingly! thank you for helping me save my Aziraphale cosplay!
Thank you SO much for this! I have a vintage J. Peterman skirt in my closet that is so gorgeous I couldn't bear to let it go. Now, I know how to make it fit again without going insane.
Remember you will have a much shorter skirt. My cousin did this and ended up with a mini skirt….. not a good look on a 60 yr old with knee replacements.
@@aussiemiss1442 lol yeah you need to be careful. She should probably let out her seems. This is a hack so not great for every skirt. You should be trying your skirts on before you cut off anything though so you should know if it will work on not. Here is a video on how to let out your skirts seams & replace the zipper. How To Tailor A Skirt That's Too Small And Make It Bigger With No Added Fabric! ruclips.net/video/YyG4Sgv1p8o/видео.html
@@SewAnastasia yeah I got to fix it by letting out the seams (it was a 6 gore skirt ) to make it ride down on the hips allowing me to put on a false top. Thankfully the hip length jacket and tank top underneath hid the repair. I also let down the hem and put a false hem to give stability. The skirt was of a really good gaberdine. Wonderful fabric. If she had let out the seam allowance on the first place there would not have been a problem. Her hips had not changed much but her waist has increased. Over 2 inches due to lack of mobility from knee problems and surgery. When I use wool or some other expensive fabric I usually add more seam allowance. I double what the pattern says for the side seam. Years of helping friends enlarge garments prompted this move. Sadly the allowance of purchased garments has gotten less and less. Even tailored garments.
This was cute. Option. If it gets too short, you can also let the hem out as far as it can go, add bias tape or hem tape on the end with a shallow seam allowance ( 1/8) -1/4,) and then turn it under and hem it again.. The end result is the hem is let out and now only turned under a 1/8 - 1/4 and the hem tape or bias is the extra fabric to either hand sew a hem or stitch.
Love this idea. I've had a skirt hanging in the closet for years because the waist is too small. I have plenty of length so I'm excited to try this. Thanks!!
Great idea. Great instruction. The only thing I would do differently is measure from the base of the waistband to where I worked want to cut as I don’t think I could draw a straight line around especially if I was wearing it. I would just mark the initial cut line while it was on me. Not sure if I’m describing this well 🤷🏼♀
Such a smart idea! I am going to try this out in my favorite black pencil skirt which is a little too tight on the waist and have been avoided the whole year. I might revive it!
Game changer for quick fixes and quite frankly I wonderful technique in any event i Just tried on my fancy palazzo pants to wear to a party tonight and have gained quite a bit of weight in the waist. Just finished altering them. Thank you thank you thank you. Oh how I wish I lived in Chicago.
When you are chalking in the new waistline, mark it at the zipper and then measure evenly from the bottom seam of the existing waistband so that when you add the 1/2" seam allowance, the waistline will be even when sewn. The way you've "guesstimated" the new waistline would create an uneven waistline seam.
I love this! I’ve been looking for a way to fix a beautiful skirt I no longer fit! Thank you this looks so easy. I’d love to be able to sew better, but for now this is perfect.
If I'm doing this, I'm also putting in side seam pockets while I'm at it - especially since they're easier to install with the side seam open at the top, and I can anchor the top of the fabric into to waistband for better weight distribution/less gaping.
Can you pls how you would reattach the old waist portion that you cut off? Bcs for me these type of skirts loose a lot of their character and style touch if the top portion is left out.
We’ll you can’t reattach it if you have made it much bigger. You won’t have enough fabric to let out in the waist but you could cut a new waist and out of a different fabric!
You could open up the waist band and use the inside of the band to lengthen the waist band if it’s lined with the same fabric. Then use another fabric to line the (long) waistband.
The skirt is now at least 3 inches short! Because, along with the waistband you cut off about 3 inches, and then folded another half inch to finish the waist line.
The waistband was above the waistline. So anything above the waist will not shorten the length just what is below the waist will shorten the length. Hope that helps. Happy sewing 🧵
Great instructions! The only issue I have is with the raw edge of the zipper which would scratch any blouse you tuck in. I would definitely add a facing for stability and to cover that raw edge. Otherwise good 👍.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled that you found my video helpful in giving your old costumes a fresh look. I appreciate your support!
It does. If you watch the video I address that. You can let out them hem or add something to the bottom or if you are like me you already want it shorter so its a 2 in one and saves soooo much time! Thanks for watching.
This was really helpful. Now I have the exact same problem with the top, which has a back zipper which needs some leeway. Do you have a tutorial for that
I did something similar except that it was an a-line midi length skirt. I took enough off the top to completely eliminate the zipper, added a casing of wide bias tape, and now it is a cute pull-on, flared, knee lenght skirt with an elastic waist. Next step will be to use some of the discarded fabric to add pockets. I will add that I don't like how unprofessional your finished edge is. It would be better with a binding or facing, so it holds its shape and looks nicer.
Thanks for watching and I am glad the technique worked out for you. My edge was finished with an overcasting stitch to make this technique accessible for beginners and quick. Of course there are nicer seam finishes. It would be lovely if all of the seams of the garments we buy in stores or makes where bias bound. Clothes in stores have come a long way. They never use to even finish the edges of clothes in store bought items!! Crazy to think about.
Thanks, I will add a tape ,in the seem that folding to make the waist more stable , l hope you don’t maid to suggest but there’s many fallowed that like to know others India’s and yours is Wonderful 🎉 Great 👍🏼, l just fix my skirt and I stragglers to get it right thankfully 🙏🏼
Hoi sweeties, Thanks for this tip but I do not wanna have my skirts shorter like happens with this tip! I love longer skirts. And you can not use this for trousers I fear. So, I have sewn an broad elastic band (preferably the same color of the garment!) on both sides of the pants (or skirt) and this works very well. But I never wear a blouse or shirt tucked in my skirt/pants anyway, always over skirt/trousers. Lots of love from Pinkie
I have a denim maxi skirt that is a smidge too tight. I want to wear it sooo much but it seems like it would be hard to do for denim. Awesome hack though!
I love that she shows multiple ways to alter garments. Not every method works for every garment, so it’s great to have different techniques in our toolbox.

Great technique but wouldn't it also shorten skirt by how ever many inches were cut off at the top?
