Thanks for your time"Teacher" !

Yes, definitely need a demonstration. Read this, heard this before...somehow, a demonstration speaks more. But thanks anyway for sharing.

a demonstration would have helped as you used the same words to describe the porblem which is pointless

I prefer the gathering method myself - or if I'm feeling lazy and I've made posterboard pattern minus seam allowances, I place the pattern on top of the cut fabric, and press the seam allowance over the pattern edge. It works great for circles. :3

I personally don't like the slits method because it can result in frayed fabric at the hem - not good!
