I still love these type of knickers. They were popular in the 60s and 70s. Then they became known as big knickers and went out of fashion, but you still get someone like me who has never lost interest in them. I still have fond memories for what was popular and fashionable when I was a teenager.😊
@@joannemcmillan9201 They are called granny 👵 panties in the British Isles too, but I have never liked that name, bearing in mind I am well old enough to be a 👴 grandfather, and countless people my age will be grandparents. Granny and granddad are names which sound old. Most of us fear growing old almost as much as we 😰 fear 💀 death. I am at least pleased three people kindly gave my comment about liking big knickers the 👍 thumbs up sign.
@@joannemcmillan9201 When I was a teenager and a young man I was very keen on patterned Y Fronts. Men of all ages wore Y Fronts. In the mid 80s boxer 🩳 shorts caught on and Y Fronts went out of fashion as if they had never been popular. People then thought only older men wore Y Fronts.
Thanks so much! It's so hard to find high-waist patterns, especially with inclusive size ranges! I do have tips from my hard-earned knit experience ;) If you're struggling with starting a seam (feed dogs eating fabric), you can 1) pull a bit of thread tail from the bobbin, as opposed to starting with the bit left after the auto-cutter does its job. Hold the thread tails, and pull lightly as you start the seam. 2) if #1 doesn't do the job, try using strips of tissue paper, tear-away stabilizer, or water-soluble stabilizer under your project, laying on the feed dogs. Cut an extra 3 cm length, the stabilizer strip is longer than your intended seam. 3) if your machine still kicks up (I've only had this happen with the thinnest knit and mesh), you could also try doing a stabilizer sandwich, putting strips both top and bottom. Happy Sewing!
UNDER THE PROJECT! Okay. I know what I did wrong now. lol Thank you for the tips! There is nothing I hate more than fighting my machine for my fabric back and bringing out the seam ripper.
I love how you are so thorough in explaining how to make panties and your gift of the pattern. This is just a wonderful teaching video. If I may say, I would appreciate either no music or turning it down very, very low. I found myself stopping the video to adjust the volume so many times, it took away the joy of learning. You have a very soft, sweet voice and I didn't want to miss a word of your instruction, but then, the blaring music would start and startle me! It actually hurt my ears and I had to turn it down. Again, thank you for this opportunity to see how to make "me made" panties and for the generous use of your pattern.
I am so sorry, I just rewatched your video using this link - ruclips.net/video/8EvZEJNgspk/видео.html and the volume was perfect! Thank you so much. It is so much more enjoyable being able to just watch and absorb your information. Again, thank you for the free pattern too. You have a new subscriber!! ♥
Hi Lila, Thank you for the kind words and yes I created a new version after popular request. You're so very welcome and I hope you have fun making your own undies! Thank you for following! :)
Thank you for the great pattern. Being a long time panty wearer (male) I much appreciate the high waist. I used nylon tricot (a bit harder to work with but feels wonderful). Full bum and a roomy front, what else could a fellow ask for? This pattern makes a panty for all day, all night, and playtime too ! Thanks again !
Seriously, I think you should do a video short wearing these. Why not? You have done a couple of other video shorts of yourself in your homemade knickers, and they are very 👍 nice.🎉
Fabulous tutorial thank you, I’m not sure I’d like the side seams effectively ‘raw’, would it still work if I were to sew up each layer of the side seams together separately & then join the two layers up just by the elasticated edges ? (Hope that makes sense)
Good information. If I may make a suggestion, your voice is quite low volume, but the music you added is quite loud. I wear headphones while watching so I had a few painful blasts to my ears and had to adjust the volume up and down throughout the video. Perhaps if you give it a listen before posting, you can modulate the audio.
I would also like to encourage content creators to consider leaving background music out entirely. I wear bluetooth hearing aids and too much coming directly into my head gives my brain too much to process and I end up with a headache. I'm okay with just simple instructions and the sound of the sewing machine.
I’m sorry to hear the music was too loud for you. When I edited the video this wasn’t the case on my laptop, In fact I thought it would be too quiet as I am sensitive to loud sounds. And even after watching on my laptop after the upload I still don’t have a problem, I think it’s different computers put out sound differently. I can’t delete the video now, so the only thing I can do is upload again and have a double video with no music. Would that be better?
@@sewprojects471 Thank you for the tutorial it is really good, very well done but I agree that the music is too loud. I have to have the volume up to hear your voice but then the music really blasts out. I'd rather silence, personally, the walls in my flat are paper thin and if I listen late at night, the neighbour can hear. I do appreciate the tutorial though.
@@tinawebley3985 thank you so much for commenting and I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial. I will be uploading a new version with softer music in the next few days! Stay tuned!
Hi, I think your pattern and video are amazing. Just to let you know - I did comment yesterday and applied for your patttern but there appears to be a problem - because sadly my comment did not appear, neither has the pattern . . .
You did I wonderful job with these panties? And I'm going to make them today. I always wanted to make my own panties, but I don't like bikini style panties because I am a larger girl. What is the name of your fabric you use?
Hi Zelda, thank you so much! Ahh amazing! Hope they go well. They sound perfect for you! The patterned fabric is a stretch mesh. You can see the fabric info in the description. :) (But it may not be available to buy anymore.)
The pattern will show the size chart for what size you need. If your waist is a different size to hips then you can grade the sizes via the method here - ruclips.net/video/iHOTOnNpH-k/видео.html
Hi there, yes with the right fabric. It needs to be a fabric that has a strong stretch retention. But that depends on how much support you are looking for too.
Hi Helena, the email is an automated delivery so if you can't see it in your inbox check your junk. If you have any more problems you can email me at info@sew-projects.com
That music is a real issue. It near deafened me on several occasions as your voice was very low so had to turn up volume, then got blasted by the incredibly loud background music which was a huge amount higher. Really spoilt the video sadly.

I TRIED AND TRIED TO PRINT THIS PATTERN TO ABSOLTELY NO AVAIL. WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DOWNLOAD IT? I SUBSCRIBED AS YOU ASKED BUT I STILL CANNOT ACCESS THIS PATTERN. WHAT ARE YOUR INSTRUCTIONS? UNLESS YOUR OFFER IS NOT LONGER GOOD. IS THAT THE CASE?
Hi Ellie, the pattern is still available. Is it that when you sign up you are not receiving the email? If so try a different email. I don't know why but it doesn't like some email servers. (It's an automated email.) Or check your junk. Hope that sorts the problem out!

In the U.S. we call them granny panties.

Thank you for the elastic measurements,so helpful ❤
So pleased you found it helpful!
Thanks for the free pattern. How about knee length knickers or bloomers.
Very nice

Thank you for sharing
Your welcome!
I love 💕 70s style undies, male and female.😊 I 💭 think it was the golden decade for underwear.
Very helpful.
Thank you Violette! ❤️
Found your video helpful though the background music was way too loud and would be better without.
I have never thought high waist knickers look frumpy or granny like.

Yes that would work, just don’t attach all the layers together at the gusset seams!

Thank you! If you've signed up to the email list and haven't received the pattern, check your junk folder. :)
Kindly share where you got your fabrics from please.Thank you!!
Hello, I've added the fabrics I've used in the description.
@@sewprojects471 thank you..😊
Попробовала склеить выкройку. Масштаб правильный, но не получилось состыковать.
You did I wonderful job with these panties? And I'm going to make them today. I always wanted to make my own panties, but I don't like bikini style panties because I am a larger girl.

Hi Zelda, thank you so much! Ahh amazing! Hope they go well. They sound perfect for you! The patterned fabric is a stretch mesh. You can see the fabric info in the description. :) (But it may not be available to buy anymore.)
Can I ask a question about the mannequin you are using. Was this bought and if so where did you get this particular one. Thank you.
Hi I got this via my university when I studied there.
Thank you for the free pattern
My waist is 106cm and my hips are 112cm can you tell me wich size comes the closest?
T.i.a
The pattern will show the size chart for what size you need. If your waist is a different size to hips then you can grade the sizes via the method here - ruclips.net/video/iHOTOnNpH-k/видео.html
Can these mae to give more sipportbin thrvtummy aeea?
Hi there, yes with the right fabric. It needs to be a fabric that has a strong stretch retention. But that depends on how much support you are looking for too.
Hi.... What thread did you use ?
Hey, its a Guttermann polyester :)
Like a previous writer below, I've subscribed twice and have yet to receive the free pattern. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Hi Helena, the email is an automated delivery so if you can't see it in your inbox check your junk. If you have any more problems you can email me at info@sew-projects.com
I couldn't find the link for the pattern
Hi this is the link - landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/k0j4b1
HOW DO I GET THE PATTERN PLEASE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT AN EMAIL HAS BEEN SENT TO ME BUT NOTHING HAS ARRIVED. THANKS.
If you didn't get it, try a different email address.
Where can I find the free pattern? Can anyone help me pls. Thanks.
Hey! If you look in the description under the video you’ll find it there. ☺️Enjoy and let me know how it goes!
What size are those? They are humongous!
They are a size 3 which relates to UK size 10.
my pattern never arrived, even after three attempts!!
It's all automated. If it's not in your junk then try using a different email. If still no luck, email me directly. :D
Pretty, but no gusset means yes wedgey
There is a gusset
Why does my crotch 😢keep twisting
Hi there, can you explain what you mean a bit more and I'll try to help you figure out the issue. :)
Good job, but scrap the music.
Thanks, please read the description and watch the other video.
They actually do look granny like. I’m a granny, and no way could I wear those.
Great, apart from the annoying bursts of loud hideous music, which really detracted from the video.
You can now view the updated one here with quieter music - ruclips.net/video/8EvZEJNgspk/видео.html
I GIVE UP. TRIED LOADS OF TIMES. NOTHING.
just look at the video suggestions aside / below, lots of freebooks there. If you got a rtw panty with great fit you might want to copy this one.
