    @sissymayemaye 8 лет назад +14

    Ok, April, I'd like to see you do something with beading techniques or appliques on sheer fabric. I'm a SUPER beginner sewer, but I have had a design in my head for YEARS, and now that I have a sewing machine, I must get it out! I have looked online to maybe BUY something at least similar, but there's nothing out there, at least not in the color I want, so I resolved to just make it myself. It's going to be a top. But not just any top, it's a Bollywood-type top and I want to wear it to a Kpop concert (to blend my loves for Kpop and Bollywood into one complete experience, lol)! I found a picture of it in a pink top and pantset version in a movie called Agent Vinod (link:
    www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/new-stills-of-kareena-kapoor-in-agent-vinod/ ). Now I know it's going to take a while to make since I have to learn HOW to do it first, lol, but I have YOU as my sewing guru, so I know I can't fail!! So if you thrift ANYTHING WITH BEADING/APPLIQUES, please make a video and share as many tips as possible!! Thanks so much!!

  • @star12341998
    @star12341998 8 лет назад +6

    I think if I did this, I'd see the to and waistband and bottom together first before inserting the elastic band into the waistband (and maybe the top too). Isn't it easier sewing the parts together without them bunching together😅? The shirt looks beautiful though, I'll think of giving this one a go!

  • @breemdawn5301
    @breemdawn5301 8 лет назад

    I have a bright orange shirt that I've never worn and I doubt I ever will, so I'm trying to find something to do with it. I always have costumes left from dances and performances, then they go to the back of the wardrobe and never see them again, so I'm looking for things I can do with some of the weird and wacky garments I own.
