How to Turn a Plain Skirt into A Romantic Layered Maxi Skirt

- Опубликовано: 13 июн 2023
- Thrifted skirt, turned into a lovely romantic layered piece of wearable art! This is a rare step by step tutorial showing you how to create a beautiful altered couture skirt, and I did it all on a dime! I start with a thrifted skirt and show you how to build luscious layers with clothing remnants, lace, tablecloths, fringe, fabric flowers, sequins and more. Then...we dye it a beautiful light blue color with Kentucky sky Dyemore fabric dye. Create your own pieces of wearable art (I have tons of tutorials) to wear, give as gifts or sell like I did. Most of all have fun and don't take it to seriously!

You have so much talent, but you have a real GIFT for teaching. You’re so thorough in explaining your process, and you never skip a step, making it easy for us to understand and be able to do it ourselves. Thank you so much for being willing to share all of your ‘tricks’ with us. A lot of people wouldn’t. You have a very giving heart. You are a TREASURE TROVE of knowledge! ❤
Thank you so so much for the kind words, I appreciate that more than you know!🤗💕💕💕💕💕💕
Thank you for teaching s .Enjoy all the different things you mad they are Beautiful
Aww thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕💕
she said it all!
🤗💖💖💖💖
The skirt is breathtaking! Thank you for taking your time to make such a detailed tutorial for us!
Aww my pleasure! Thank you so much for watching and reaching out!🤗💕💕💕💕
I want to thank you for allowing us to see when you change your mind, such as when you decided to cut your skirt shorter because you wanted the lace ruffle a little higher. I appreciate you showing us how you make decisions and changes as you go along working on your projects. I often begin with an idea, then add or change something. I thought that perhaps I did not plan well enough. But, you have shown me that, being able to add or subtract from my project is just part of the process and not a defect! Thank you! ❤️
Absolutely! It's all part of the process. When I sold my items, I had the voice in the back of my head saying, "never let them see you sweat." Well, now that I'm doing tutorials, the truth is out..I sweat sometimes lol! Thank you so much for your kind words, my friend.🤗💕💕💕
Yes, so true!!! That is one of my favorite things about her videos... 🙂
Tracy's a wonderful teacher
Aww thank you so much 🤗💞💞💞💞💞💞
Wow! That skirt is amazing! Thank you for showing the whole process. You are very creative! I can’t wait to try some of these techniques. ☺️
She is
I am speechless. This is BEAUTIFUL. You are truly talented, You have an eye for art. Wearable art and I love it. I love everything about this outfit as every piece you make. And as always you look amazing. A 1000 times I am never disappointed. Love your channel my friend Tracy.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I appreciate that AND YOU soooo much! As always I thank you my sweet friend!!🤗💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

💕💕💕💕🤗🤗🤗🤗
I so love your tutorials, you are literally the only person I've found that give such clear and easy to follow instructions. This is my favourite make of yours so far - it's stunning!
Thank you so so much!🤗🤗🤗🤗💗
Stunning! I wonder if, one of these days, you will do something similar for plus-sized ladies (like me). I feel it's harder for this type of garment to look good on bigger bodies so I'd love some coaching on how to achieve that.
When I sold, I made mostly XL-4X in this exact style and I always sold out. 🤗💞💞💞
I LOVE that you show your mistakes and show that it's not an exact science, like "normal" people!!! Thank you!!
Aww thank you so much 🤗💞💞💞
I always wanted to make my own clothes and with your creativity plus your gift of your teaching I'm on my way. Gratefully 😊❤🎉
I'm so glad! Have fun and enjoy!!!🤗💞💞💞💞
Oh my gosh I love this so much. I was hoping you would do layered ruffles video. I am so doing this. Beautiful work as always!
Thank you so so much!!💞💞💞💞💞💞
I made something like that with extra lace and fabric flowers I made. I get lots of compliments and I tell them about your channel.
I appreciate that so much! Thank you 🤗😘💞💞💞
What an amazing video!!! I'm so grateful that you are sharing your wisdom and experience in these videos. They are unbelievably helpful. Thanks again.
Aww thank you so much 🤗🤗🤗💞
Tracy this skirt is gorgeous, romantic, one of a kind…beautiful. Love the skirt, love your teaching style. Have some great ideas thanks to you. Fun! Fun! Fun! Many thanks.
Thank you so so much!!💞💞💞💞
Tracey: you are such an inspiration for me! I have begun to make messenger bags & purses because of your wonderful teaching techniques! I want to thank you for helping those of us who absolutely love what you do! ❤
Awww love you! It's truly my pleasure, thank YOU so much for watching!🤗💞💞💞💞
I love how the blue took to the fabric at different tones & how unique your boho skirt looks ❤
Thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕
Wonderful creation, Traci! ❤️ You know before watching your channel, I saw clothes like this on eBay and was amazed by the prices! Now I understand all the work that goes in.
Thank you so much! Yes, they take some work🤗💞💞💞
I love this skirt. The dying is perfect with light and dark color. Such talent in all your creations.
Thank you so so much 🤗💗💗💗💗💗
I love this skirt! This will go to my Traci Inspired Project List! Just this week I was gifted lotsssss of Laced curtains & doilies from a neighbor that moved out of state! I’m now busy sorting and washing them so I can start my projects. I will definitely share it here one day and mention my amazing Teacher Traci! 🤗💖💖💖
You are so lucky!!!!Have fun with all your new found treasures!!!🤗😘💞💞💞💞
That shade of blue is so dreamy!
Thank you!🤗😘💞
Greetings from New Zealand. Beautiful skirt! Rather than cutting off and re-sewing the triangles section, you could always just add a tuck (or two) in the sheer skirt. That is what what we do in heirloom sewing when we want to shorten a skirt or sleeves. Love your videos, you do very creative work. And wonderful that you are willing to teach others. Adored the squirrel casually hopping across the path out the window, lol. Cheers.
Thank you so much for the tip!!!🤗💞💞💞💞
Fantabulous!!!!!
Love the skirt. You are pumping new sewjo back in my veins. Thank you!!!❤
That makes me so happy!!!🤗💕💕💕💕
You opened up a whole new world of possibilities - I LOVE your work, your talent, your tutorial and your generosity in sharing. Blessings and love from Canada
Aww I'm so glad! Thank you so much for watching and reaching out!!🤗💞💞💞
A genuine and unique tutorial, 'tmyers handmade' videos are packed with so much knowledge that no matter how skilled a sewer/crafter you are, it would be impossible to walk away at the end of one w/out having learned at least a trick...Lol... or five!
The creator of 'tmyers handmade' videos (and short clips) is Tracy Myers, a wonderfully articulate artist and gifted teacher. I've been following Tracy on RUclips for awhile now, but clearly remember my initial impression was that Tracy is someone who radiates creativity, and has likely been making art since she was old enough to hold a paint pallet or thread a sewing needle. After watching several of her videos, I pondered their paradoxical effect on me: on the one hand, Tracy's passion for one-of-a-kind design, fashion, and styling is extremely contagious, and her videos are an effervescent mixture of vivacious enthusiasm. But wait, "effervescent mixture of vivacious enthusiasm"...Lol...sounds a little hyper, or a bit exhausting though doesn't it?
Well, hence lies the paradox I mentioned. When it comes to sharing her passion for creating, Tracy wears her heart on her sleeve as she lovingly reminds us during ea presentation that perfection is definitely Not the goal - but neither is simply copying Tracy verbatim. The underlying vibe is that "Fun"..."Joy"...and, "Creating" are not Just permissible in her videos, they're part of who we are as humans. Tracy inadvertently gives us permission to cultivated creativity - that (often neglected) part of ourselves...by gently taking the viewer's hand and leading us...back to ourselves.
Thank you so much 🤗💖💖💖💖💖
I'm speechless too, OMG you are amazing
Awww! Thank you so much!🤗💖💖💖💖
WOWSERS how cool is this skirt. Love it 💕 As a crafter I barely throw anything away as I can always repurpose . You just added a whole new level of ideas. Thank you 😍
Aww thank you so much!💞💞💞💞
Just awesome ❤ Thanks for showing your work. You are a special teacher!
Thank you so so much!🤗💕💕💕💕
This looks like a vintage skirt, Love it. Lace and crochet is my thing. You are good. Got me beat. Enjoy your sewing.
This screams Stevie Nicks to me. What a gorgeous confection! ❤❤ Stevie would order it in at least three colors, I know she would ❤ That bottom lace ruffle with the fringe is to die for! And that pastel blue shade, wow….Makes me want to mist myself with Anais Anais perfume and run through a field of wildflowers covered in dew. Siiiigh….😊
Lol!!! Thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕
Sometimes AI ain't so bad because it brought me to you this morning. I just got done recycling a lampshade my young cat used as a molar teething ring!!! So glad to find you. What struck me right away was your delightful no nonsense delivery and demeanor. Thanx so much, you are a pro!
Aww thank you so much!! Funny about your kitty, I have a couch I need to upcycle because my kitties use it as a scratching post lol🤗💞💞💞💞

Absolutely lovely. I want to edit some of my skirts like this so I’m glad I found a tutorial. It was a bit long and detailed for me but I can just skip bits or speed it up, and that way it’s great for me and for others who need very slow, specific instructions. Love these kind of fairycore outfits ❤

Love your channel glad I found you. Looking forward to more awesome videos. Thank you ❤
