I really like how you're pretty young, yet you know how to sew. Makes me feel like a retard. :P (Even though I'm not much older myself.)

thats really good

[dinosaurmusicfreak]

you spelled scissors wrong

[xxSOPHASAURUSxx]

@dinosaurmusicfreak hahahahaah faaail

[emeraldile]

I'm very impressed with you! My grandmother taught me to sew when I was about your age and I'm 50 now. It's a really good thing to know how to do and will be fun for you all your life. Keep it up!

[INxLOVExWITHxNAILS]

It was okay ...........

[AGAznB]

Exactly what kind of fabric is it? I looked on joann's website and could not find the one you used...

[xxSOPHASAURUSxx]

@AGAznB im not sure EXACTLY what type, but its veeeeeery stretchy. Haha i just tried to find the stretchy-est fabric i could find! :)

[PurplePandaBear777]

@xxSOPHASAURUSxx Then that would most likely be a jersey type or maybe a jersey blend. Or spandex mix... The world of fabric is overrated :)

[marinamkd]

@AGAznB it's either a jersey or a 80/20-70/30 cotton/ellastine fabric

[AGAznB]

@marinamkd Thanks! :) That helps a lot

[marinamkd]

@AGAznB no problem :) I would suggest, if you want to make it edgier, use and elastic band for the waist if u are using the jersey. I'm guessing you can find them with all sorts of colors and designs, not just black and white.

have fun :)

[MyNamesAlexxx]

ohh yeah im so dumb (:

[MyNamesAlexxx]

do you have t put the waist band on or can you just leave it ? :)

[xxSOPHASAURUSxx]

@MyNamesAlexxx i guess not but idk how it would stay up then, haha(:

[14viviz]

@MyNamesAlexxx you have to put a waist band so it will stay put n give you more of a hour glass shape.

[Paisian17]

@katherinedelafuente basically she just measured the size of her waist then took that tape measure and opened it up and thats wat she used as her measurement thats y she folded the fabric in half
