Inna Multi-Way Wrap Skirt Sewing Pattern – Studio Rosado
Sewing instructions:
1. Preparing the Waistband:
Making a hole in the side seam:
Lay the front and back waistband pieces together with the right sides facing. Pin the side seams matching the notches.
Make 3 seams:
1. Stitch starting from the upper edge to the first notch. Don’t forget to backstitch.
2. From the 2nd to 3rd notch.
3. From 4th notch to lower edge.
Press the allowances open.
P.S. If you don’t want a hole in the side seam, simply make a straight stitch.
Fold the waistband on half and press it.
Unfold the waistband. Press the seam allowance on one side of the waistband starting from one notch to another.
Fold the waistband on the side seam. Back and front waistband right sides are facing. Keep the upper seam allowance folded towards the waistband.
2. Skirt Side Seams:
Neaten the seam (both layers together).
Press the seams towards back panel.
3. Front Edges:
Fold 1cm (3/8”) of the seam allowance and stitch 1-2mm (1/16”) apart from the edge.
4. Joining The Waistband:
Press the seam towards waistband.
Stitch in the ditch:
Work from the right side. Stitch in the ditch of the seam. Take your time and lightly pull the fabric on either side of the machine’s needle as you guide it through the ditch.
This way the seam won’t be really visible from the right side.
5. Hem:
Fold 1cm (3/8”) of the hem allowance
and stitch 2mm apart from the edge. Press.
Fold 3mm of the allowance again
and stitch 2mm apart from the edge. Press.
Give the final press and you’ve finished!
