  • Just what I needed. Thank you.

  • Love the budget idea and frugality. Exactly my purpose for getting back into sewing.

  • Happy belated birthday. My latest grandaughter born urgently two weeks early@ 11:12 pm.!

  • Beautiful project! Love the fabric!

  • happy birthday!

  • really thankx for your awesome video..really helpful

  • Dear Whitney, my daughter is in love with a "magic wrap around skirt" but they are very expensive, she is a size 10-12 and she wants the long skirt, can you tell me how can I make it for her? Can  you show me how to make a pattern for that skirt? Or someone that knows how to make the skirt. Please send me an e-mail at JRios407@yahoo.com Thanks !!!!!

  • we love the reversible wrap skirt, i will make one for my 9 yr old, she wants to make one herself

  • thank you for the video. as always you do a good job, but this time I thought the intro was soooooo long. sorry. but I am a true fan of yours. keep them coming.

  • oh great i understand perfect

  • oh great video i understand perfectly not like others

  • I love your creativity. I have been sewing for years, but find myself learning so much. I went to a local GoodWill store and found a brand new Strawberry Shortcake valance for $.50. It, paired with some contrasting fabric I already had, made a super cute sun dress for my granddaughter. Keep posting. Thanks!

  • @Roodysmum Aww the sun dress sounds super cute :)

  • @aglanceatmyworld

    Whitney, are you selling this skirt in your store ? Thank for your videos, they are fab !

  • @32gaspard HI, thanks for commenting! I'm not selling the skirt from this video, but I do have two other skirts (still reversible wraps, just different prints) I've made that will be listed in my store within the next month :)

  • I'm sorry but I can not find where you hemmed it on the bottom?

  • @heavenlyangelsrhere Reversible items don't have to be hemmed because all the raw edges are hidden between the two layers when they are sewn together.

  • @aglanceatmyworld gotcha! thanks!

  • Aren't you worried about that a gust of wind can open the skirt behind you, and you can´t do anything before it's too late?

  • @fredrikzohn I always wear short shorts underneath just in case.

  • I love your videos!!!! Thanks!!

  • I really like your tips

  • @Jhuztyce Thanks!

  • Kudos to you for being able to use an ancient machine! mine is just barely newer than yours! Very nice job!

  • @MrsFenFen Hehe, thanks :) I love using that machine! The old all metal machines work better for me then my newer mostly plastic one. I have several other sewing machines, the oldest is 90+ years old and still works!

  • Im not much a dress/skirt person, but once I saw it on you I just have to make one now! Please do more reversible items....I love how they add to the wardrobe ,but take up less space and money!

  • @chick165 I'm glad you liked the tutorial! :)

  • @SoUnC00L I don't appreciate your language

  • the camera chnages the color when you get into the frame because it is in Auto White Balance, therefor she thinks the blue is a cold color and compensate by warming up the tones... ;D

    u are pretty!!!

  • @mixmaxdix Yes my camera does try to auto white balance...but I'm using a flip camera so there is no way to prevent that. :)

  • This may seem like a strange question but I'm confused by how the skirt is tied. Most wrap skirts I have seen button not tie so I'm not sure how the tie would work.

  • Pretty! That's the first time I have seen a wrap skirt that wraps on the back though. All I have had and seen, has wrapped around to the front...

  • @LottaTroublemaker

    I would also wear it that way... I mean isn't it more comfortable when the potential opening is on the front?

    But this is great video. I already have one wrap skirt and now Whitney made me want to have one more. :)

  • I love the thrifty, yet fashionable ideas you have Whitney. Happy Birthday!

  • THank you!

  • happy Birthday

  • I think it might be better if you do less explaination in the beginning and give the info as you are doing the project - I found it too longwinded to watch your episode this week and gave up before I got to the project. Btw I quite liked your memo board in the background, very cute

  • Thanks for the suggestion. I did the explaining at the begining like that because I wanted it to be more clear if someone is having to adapt the pattern.

    I made the memo board about the time I started college it works awesome in our sewing room now :)

  • Great tutorial, Whitney. (And happy birthday!)

  • I knew I saw this pattern at my thrift store! Purchased tons of patterns today from the thrift store, and this was among them"^.^"

  • That is awesome!

  • Tanti Auguri from Italy :)

  • happy birthday! Whitney rocks!

  • happy Bday!

    and i love how the skirt is done, i soo want to try it

    but i want to know how to make a short skirt at about 2 or 3 inches above the knee...

  • Happy Birthday! Great skirt! Thanks :)

  • Happy Happy Birthday!!!!!

  • you are so talented! love you and watching your videos every week.

  • Happy Birthday"^.^"

  • Go Mom making a cameo on this week's episode! Love the end production credit.

  • Yay Mom!

  • Seem allowance: another good way to mark on your sewing machine is a magnet, this allows you to slide it if you need to change it, and it's thicker, so it helps to guide the fabric where it should be, hope this helps : )

  • I like the skirt that u make! :)

  • Great video... I might want to make a skirt like this... :)

  • Thanks! If you make one then send me a picture and I'll post it :)

  • I really like the budget part of the show, glad you're adding that!

    That skirt is awesome, thanks for the awesome tutorial! =)

  • Thank you! :)
