    What changes are done to make a half circle or a quarter circle skirt? Waist and length will be the same, so what changes 🧐. Thanks much. Just going blank!!

    The Omni calculator removed .8 inches from the radius it gave me and I don’t understand why?? The radius of my daughter’s waist (plus two inches for the zipper) is 22, 22/6.28 is 3.5 but it told me to use a radius of 2.7 . I didn’t double check the math and as a result I have a very very long skirt fit for a doll instead of a 4 year old. And they explain in the “circle skirt math” section that they remove the .8 inches but I can’t fathom why??

    • @Alexandra-ks7cb
      @Alexandra-ks7cb 3 месяца назад

      I think because it's the seam allowance. It doesn't make the finished waist size smaller as it should be sewn in. But that's my guess. Did you figure it out?

    Ok I'm confused...I got 3 yards of fabric....but the width of the fabric is about 43 inches...which isnt enough for the 50x50 piece of fabric you want us to cut....how do we get around this? Sew a few more inches on?? (Sorry im very new to sewing and this is my first project) :)

    • @rspilk

      With your fabric width of 43 inches, you would have to cut a 43x43 square, and go from there. If you're wanting it longer, yes, you could add a strip of fabric to the bottom, but you'd have to make sure that it will line up with the bottom of your already cut circle skirt. You could do this by folding your already measured and cut fabric in half, then laying it out on the fabric you are going to add. Measure how many inches more you want all around the half circle (marking as you go). Then you can cut it out and add it to the end of your already cut skirt.
      I did this when making one for myself, and it turned out fine. You'll just have a seam or two on the bottom sides of your finished skirt. Hope this helps. ☺

  • @wildiris229
    @wildiris229 10 месяцев назад

    The 'I'm gonna cut some extra strips for my special thing🥰' is pretty unhelpful. You don't actually explain that barely at all when it comes to the cutting, measuring, etc, process.:/
    But, thank you for at least addressing it. there are a lot of tutorials that add stuff like that and don't even mention it even a little, leaving the learner totally bewildered, yikes.
    Thank you for the overall really nice tutorial for those of us who just can't seem to figure it out. It's very generous of you to share your knowledge so openly and its a beautiful skirt. It's people like you that make it possible for the 'little people' (lol) to try to figure out what the heck is going on.
    In the meantime though, still, I'm wrecking stuff trying to imitate the 'special thing' that you don't actually explain. It's my fault for being so ambitious for someone who still is very bad at this. Still, it's hard for a beginner to have it waved in their face, with the final sewing step explained but no proper preamble. Have now bought more fabric just trying to squint at what you did.
    I know it's nothing to someone like you who is good at it to where you're teaching, but, I guess, just a reminder. You're so solid you can teach a skirt to those of us who really don't know how- if you're going to lowkey include extra shit, could you maybe, like... actually talk about it, a little more? It's a beginner skirt, yet the beginner is supposed to squint and pause and squint and guess and squint and seamrip over and over to just, make up how to approximate the thing you don't actually teach.
    If that 'funny little detail' isn't really taught in the video, it's kind of, at best disingenuous, and at worst, mean, to have as the display, advertisement, picture.
    I say this as someone who has also held workshops on the process of an adjacent trade(jeweler). I never taught a ring and then just, put jewels in mine and tried to jedi-hand-wave it out of being relevant to beginner students while also showing them that as the class sample of the finished piece. The students going, 'ok, so, when does the ruby get set?' 'oh, no, that's for me, you big goof. And for any other student who... knows how to set a ruby but not how to set a ring. somehow. magically.'
    If we don't know how to make a zip up circle skirt, chances are we do not know how to do fancy embellishments.
    I know my two cents are worth zero cents, if the teacher does not care. But in case you do, there are the two cents.
