i like this method better because the elastic doesn't have a chance to twist and turn in its tunnel. i will definitely try it out next time. thanks for sharing!
I'm glad you found this method helpful! Let me know how it goes when you try it out. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
Thank you for your video! Glad you explain a straight stitch works too and not just a zigzag to attach the elastic. Been confused since there is no explanation in other videos of a straight stitch being strong or also the option of the serger and I’ve done both ways the straight and zigzag and they have seemed to work, but wanted to know the right way. Thank you!
I lost a page of a beginner pattern I have and this saved my life.
I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! Losing a page of a pattern can be so frustrating, but I'm happy to hear that this video saved the day.
❤ fantastic job teaching! I’m so glad we have you out here!
Thank you 😊
This is amazing! I'm about to make a maxi skirt and will definitely try this!
🎉 it’s so easy. Your going to love it.
I learned from your video what I didn't learn from half a dozen previous videos on the subject, great tips, thanks for sharing! 👏👏👏💕
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you found my video helpful and that it provided you with new insights. Your support means a lot to me!
Great video!! I'm just now really getting into sewing and your videos are helping a lot.. 😊
I am so happy to hear that. You might also want to check out my online school offerings at www.sewanastasiasewingacademy.com
I like this. I believe you just helped me finish a skirt I was otherwise not going to get done in time. Thank you.
I have a request for your Future Video List. How to pattern match on either side of a zipper (specifically the back of a bodice).
Thank you for your lovely comment! It means a lot to me that I could assist you in completing your skirt. I'll definitely consider your request for a future video.
I've been wanting to make some shorts but it was always the elastic that stopped me from trying. Thank you for making this video! I'd love to watch a video about lining a garment. Lining things always seem scary but I think if you teach it to us then it won't be so scary lol
I'm so glad this video helped you overcome the elastic hurdle! Lining garments can definitely seem intimidating, but I'll make sure to create a video on it soon to help you out!
I’m a new subscriber and beginner sewist on my 2nd project which is a basic summer maxi skirt. I am excited to try this method for elastic wasteband to finish the skirt. So happy I discovered your channel and this video ❤❤❤
Happy sewing 🧵 & thank you for watching.
What a great method! Thanks! 😊
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!
Wonderful video thank you ❤
Very good.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support!
Thank you❤
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel! I appreciate your time and feedback.
Thanks for the idea! I was curious if you can show us how you would do shirring on the waist? And how to include lining with it.
Thank you for your suggestion! I appreciate your curiosity and I'll definitely consider making a video on shirring on the waist and including lining with it.
Please could you do a video or a short on how to do this on a serger?!
I think I have one. Take a look at my catalogue.
thankyou!❤
Help! I was so excited to try this but it stretched the elastic out. My 34” waist because 37” after I sewed the elastic in. What did it do wrong? Thank you!
Good chance your elastic is bad so it did not stretch back to its original length or the fabric you are using is too thick for the elastic. I would get some new elastic and try again.
When measuring the elastic to fit your waist, should it be pulled tight with the elastic stretched, or just fitted snug with the elastic not stretched? And, is this best with knit or braided elastic?
Is there a recommended setting for the zigzag stitch used for sewing elastic? I suppose the zigzag width is limited by the width of the elastic, but how about the stitch length?
Hi. I want to sew elastic for my skirt. I notice the most of the skirts have a machine stitching running on the center of elastic.. I use ordinary tread. If i sew on the elastic, it will not expand when pulled. And my stitching breaks when pulled. It is so hard to pull and sew on the elastic. How is it the ones that are sold are expandabel despite having a stitching on the center of the elastic.
Anastasia, what was the length of your elastic. How much smaller was it than the width of your skirt? That's always been my dilemma with using elastic.
We’ll it really depends on how much the elastic stretches. They are all different. I would stretch the elastic around your waist as tight as you want it then make your fabric pattern the size it is stretched out.
Measure the elastic on your body first
Just found you today. :-) subscribed. My project involves: a Rugby Scrum cap, solid tone-black. The dome of the Cap is “round” 9 1/2 inches, I plan to use a 1/2 inseam, totaling 9 3/4 in. Making a flat circle, to fit a “domed” unit. Since this is not a cuffed project, will your technique of this video work? I wish to have a unique item to wear at my hometown college football games, solid black bottom, college colors up top. I have the inventory, just not the wisdom.
You can do it!
Do you happen to have a tutorial sewing elastic with the serger? Thanks that was great
I totally do! Let me find it

@@SewAnastasia great tIll watch 😀- I’m good for now with the tool- thanks so much!
I might have missed what size of stitch length you used. Thank you!
Just regular. 2 or 2.5
When I try to do what you did the elastic seems to lose a lot of its elasticity. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
The elastic might be going bad. Also try to make a longer stitch length.
@@SewAnastasiaor could it be the type of elastic used? There several different types and I get confused. Not sure what type for which project. So for this project what type of elastic did you use? Braided, woven, knit or specialty?
What kind of elastic would you recommend?
It depends on the fabric you are using but something sturdy.
What tension are you using on the sewing machine?
Just normal tension. Probably 4 or 5
I bought box of boxer briefs which happened to be a size larger than my usual waistband size. How can I sew it to reduce waistband size?
I would take them in at the back waist.
Could someone tell me the best way to know how much elastic to use in ratio to the waistband? I feel like I can never get that right
Is there a reason not to sew the elastic to the wrong side of the fabric, so we only have to flip it once?
Yes. You want to have a clean seam on the top of your project or at least this way you do not see the elastic from the outside of your project.
Im not following. You’d still have a clean seam and top because the served edge would be folded down into the skirt. I use that method to avoid waistline bulk.
how much elastic for 7.5 inches?
It depends on your elastic & how much it stretches & how tight you want it to end up.
What is the formula to make a plain skirt like that? So, the elastic is your waist size?
Then is the skirt width 1.5 times that? Or less?
What’s the math to do something simple like this.
We’ll since all elastic stretch’s differently there is no formula but the easy thing to do is pull the elastic as tight as you want it on your body, then stretch it out to see how much pull you have to work with. Now your fabric needs to be shorter then your elastic stretched out. Hope that helps 🩷
Hi, what stitch are you using to sew it onto the fabric? I think I overstretched my elastic, 😂 now it's not gathering 😊
@@janesexerciselibrary3612 I used a straight stitch. Trying making your stitch longer & it’s possible your elastic is weak/going bad cause it’s not pulling back to size. Boo 👻
