First no more filming outside 🤣🤣🤣 no mas to mosquitoes. I ABSOLUTELY love this skirt, I'm going to rewatch this one. I love the button, the pockets, the denim ( I agree with the others who mentioned, soften with coca cola), that yoke detail👌🏽And you know I'm loving that inside finish 😍😍😍. As much as we go on and on about inside finishes, I need to make some bias tape out of my scraps.
Hi Karina, you are priceless! Suffering through the mosquito attacks. Stay inside and bitten free. We tune in for you and the many tips and makes that you so graciously offer. Another great skirt make and thanks for showing the details of the construction. It is always helpful to see again and again. That way it stays in my brain, lol. You look lovely in it at well. I like the bias trim too! Thanks again.
You just need to try on some scrap fabric :) if it doesn’t work you can try again and no real fabric is lost. All this is super fun and once you get it to work for you it’s very liberating.
Karina you have every right to be super proud of your skirt, it's really beautiful. Love your tutorials, so informative, easy to understand and follow. Huge thanks to you.
Gday Karina. How are you? Love your skirt & the process you showed with your personal modifications. Aaawww poor you braving the mosquitos, the skirt came in well to flap them out of your way, made me laugh. Your inside pockets are great & the fabric you chose. Love the zipper you used as well. Thanku for sharing. X
Your're sure setting up high expectations. :-) And living up to them!!!!! Thank you for sharing your wealth of understanding to make basic patterns unique to each one of us. First time I've seen the concept of pockets done as you did these. Much appreciated.
Oh ...and thank you for the back pocket instructions...sooooooo simple the way you did it..I have tried to make one of my own before...did not come out looking as balanced as yours!! the little squares in the bottom corner really help!
Sorry...me again! Just had to point out that the bias binding looks sooooooo great! I am like you...can't be bothered...who's going to see it but me!! But it really looks sharp...so polished and finished looking!!
Love everything about his fabulous skirt!😍 I'm making a denim barbeque apron for one of my nephews and because he told me orange🍊is a favourite color, I'm lining pockets and making bias binding (thanks to Nateida) in orange fabric. No one will see, but I'll know it's there. Thanks for yet another awesome, inspiring vlog, Karina!😊
Great skirt and love the exposed CF zipper detail. Detest mozzies - they've even started hanging around during winter! Thank you for the Coca-Cola tip for softening stiff fabrics, I definitely learn something new with each video.
Brilliant skirt Karina. Thank you for variety of skirt hacks you are showing us. You make it all look so easy. I have saved all the tutorials to try now the darker nights are here in the uk.
Thank you so much for this excellent demo of making a super nice skirt. Also, thank you for sharing some of Brazil's beauty with us (but please don't make it hard on yourself -- for your sake and for ours!) I enjoy you greatly!
Karina, what a lovely, lovely denim skirt! That's too funny that Nateida was able to convince you (she's so sweet, she could convince anyone!). I have tools for making bias binding but have not yet. I always purchase mine, so far (that may change!). I love the simplicity of this skirt!
Great skirt and great instructions for drafting this denim skirt. I really love it and love the structure. If you want to soften it, did you know about washing it with Coca-cola? It really works and won't discolor your fabric. I do this all the time with my denim ready to wear as well as my handmade denim things.
Thank you for this video, I am going to use the front pocket hack on Modell120 Burda Style 05/2016 free PDF I downloaded and make it an A-Line with side Zip. hope it works.
I love this skirt!! I can soooooo see me wearing this...I love denim....and you can wear it year round here...with tights for winter!!I have a question...You took a centimetre off each side at the beginning to eliminate the darts...and when you were doing the back yoke...you took another centimetre off...just wondering why that was?...Just so I know when I am making one!! You look fantastic in it!! And the zipper on the front...I have to say I was never a fan of the exposed zippers...until I seen these skirts...now I am!! thank you!
I took the cm off the back to eliminate the little dart left over under the back yoke. That little dart can be sewn up instead but it might look silly. Thank you so much for watching. This was super fun to make.
Oh Karina I wanted to start scratching watching all those mosquitoes swarming around you why on earth didn't you give in and go inside we would rather you not get bitten than a change of scenery. I would have been running around the garden waving that skirt about like a lunatic lol 😂 The skirt looks fabulous and I wish I could keep my lines straight like yours.
Lol it was sunset and the only lighting option on that day and I had to film that day 😂. The straight lines are achieved with all the special feet! 1/4” and edgefoot. Magic. Thanks for watching.
I didn’t remove the back darts twice. The waist dart was transferred to the yoke. The tiny left over residual dart below the yoke was transferred to the side seam. In essence I didn’t remove anything, just transferred. What I did is not wrong, it’s just dart manipulation. Thanks for watching 😊.

You are welcome and yes, if I film outside it will be in the morning when there are no bugs around.
I love these videos where you teach us how you draft and design your own patterns from a template. Some day I will get brave enough to try.
You just need to try on some scrap fabric :) if it doesn’t work you can try again and no real fabric is lost. All this is super fun and once you get it to work for you it’s very liberating.
Karina you have every right to be super proud of your skirt, it's really beautiful. Love your tutorials, so informative, easy to understand and follow. Huge thanks to you.
ThNk you so much :)
Karina you are a rock star of modifying patterns. I am very impress. Keep the videos coming. I get so excited when your notifications pops up🇨🇦🇨🇦😠😎😎
Thank you!

Thank you for watching. Filming outside was only a great idea in my head. I got some nasty bites behind my knees lol
You do the best pattern hacks - very easy to follow and a beautiful result! You are one smart lady!
Thank you! I really enjoy myself creating all the extras.
Another clear and concise tutorial Karina! You are a marvel! A great skirt! TFS xx
Thank you. I loved sewing it :)
Your're sure setting up high expectations. :-) And living up to them!!!!!
Thank you for sharing your wealth of understanding to make basic patterns unique to each one of us. First time I've seen the concept of pockets done as you did these. Much appreciated.
These pockets are so comfy because they don’t move :)
It looks WONDERFUL on you. Great job.
Thank you!
You look gorgeous in this skirt! Thanks for showing us how you did it; I really have an easy time understanding your instruction!!
That’s great to hear. I try to make it as uncomplicated as possible 😊
Yes I agrees with Stay Stitching Karla, you make it look easy!
Beautiful! The inside is as beautiful as the outside.
Thank you :)
You do such beautiful work. Thank you for all the tips and instruction you give. I'm learning so much from you.
That’s so great. I always wanted my videos to be helpful.
Wow Karina what a fantastic skirt! You have done it again!! It looks great on you and as always great tips. Stay inside away from the bugs my friend!
The bugs come out in the evening I’ve noticed ... so yep... going out was a bad idea 😂.
Oh ...and thank you for the back pocket instructions...sooooooo simple the way you did it..I have tried to make one of my own before...did not come out looking as balanced as yours!! the little squares in the bottom corner really help!
I looked at my RTW jeans and figured it out :)
Sorry...me again! Just had to point out that the bias binding looks sooooooo great! I am like you...can't be bothered...who's going to see it but me!! But it really looks sharp...so polished and finished looking!!
I’m moody about what gets the binding 😂. The side seams never will.... I don’t want extra bulk there.
Gorgeous skirt! Love everything about it! Stay inside away from those bugs!! Lol Love your videos so much😊❤
I will. I learnt my lesson. The lighting was nice outside at sunset but the mosquitoes like to play.

They never left in winter here also. They’ve mutated and even spray won’t kill them.... ugh.
Karina this skirt is soooo lovely! Well done! I'm binge watching!😉
I’ll be back soon! I promise :)
Brilliant skirt Karina. Thank you for variety of skirt hacks you are showing us. You make it all look so easy. I have saved all the tutorials to try now the darker nights are here in the uk.
They are as easy as shown :) it’s about giving it a go to modify basic patterns. I have a load of fun. Thanks for watching 😊
Legit denim shirt/ bug swatter! lol! Lovely!
Multi-purpose!
Fantastic skirt,love it😘
Thank you
Thank you so much for this excellent demo of making a super nice skirt. Also, thank you for sharing some of Brazil's beauty with us (but please don't make it hard on yourself -- for your sake and for ours!) I enjoy you greatly!
😂 no more outside filming at sunset :)
Beautiful Karina! Thank you for another great video - amazing what you do with a skirt block! You inspire me in so many ways :)
That makes me happy 😃.
Impressive. I learn a lot from your videos. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching :)
thank-you! love your skirt.
Thank you :)
Karina, what a lovely, lovely denim skirt! That's too funny that Nateida was able to convince you (she's so sweet, she could convince anyone!). I have tools for making bias binding but have not yet. I always purchase mine, so far (that may change!). I love the simplicity of this skirt!
She’s always swooning about inside finishing and I got the bug from her :)
I did it! Had some kaki and the skirt fits perfectly! Now I have a go to pattern for recycling denim. Thank you!
That skirt is adorable! Those bugs have to go now. AACK!
They come out to play at sunset. Learnt my lesson 😂
Great skirt and great instructions for drafting this denim skirt. I really love it and love the structure. If you want to soften it, did you know about washing it with Coca-cola? It really works and won't discolor your fabric. I do this all the time with my denim ready to wear as well as my handmade denim things.
Yup. It’s a great trick. I have to buy some for that purpose. I’ve done it in the past with great results.
Thank you for this video, I am going to use the front pocket hack on Modell120 Burda Style 05/2016 free PDF I downloaded and make it an A-Line with side Zip. hope it works.
I’m sure it will. Just keep the same shape as your pattern and you’ll be fine :)
I love this skirt!! I can soooooo see me wearing this...I love denim....and you can wear it year round here...with tights for winter!!I have a question...You took a centimetre off each side at the beginning to eliminate the darts...and when you were doing the back yoke...you took another centimetre off...just wondering why that was?...Just so I know when I am making one!!

It's a Lovely skirt but did you realise you removed the value of the darts in the back, twice. The front pockets were really great. Thank you
I didn’t remove the back darts twice. The waist dart was transferred to the yoke. The tiny left over residual dart below the yoke was transferred to the side seam. In essence I didn’t remove anything, just transferred. What I did is not wrong, it’s just dart manipulation. Thanks for watching 😊.
Another masterpiece...……….. Zips are in the post :) :)
