Happy 4th!
I'm probably a bit behind because it took my partner and I awhile to finish watching Manifest... but excellent job playing Orlena!
When I saw you, I squeeled and said "BABE! SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO SEW THIS ZIPPER!!!" and pointed at my invisizip 🙈🤣
He laughed, but I was very excited. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and joy with us 💙

Out of all the demos I’ve seen to measure the skirt, yours is more to clear to me— another challenged mather

[loukalicious]

Dreamy skirt 😘 and you make me feel so much better when you can't find things that are right there! For the time I pauze the video that Im watching on my phone to go searching for my phone 😭😂❤️

I use basting tape instead of pins when I’m sewing zippers because I can’t Seam to keep the pins straight or something, stuff blurbles and the seams wiggle and jig. And I poke myself. 57 years old, sewing for most of those years, and zippers still frustrate me.
Clear, easy tutorial Marcy!

Yay! YAY! Easy-ish! Thanks, Marcy (and MIA Rob), and enjoy the long weekend! Happy 4th!

Such a great tutorial and fun to watch. Thank you!

I love this tutorial!
I have about the same square footage for my sewing space and it never ceases to amaze me how things still get lost. 😂

I love your dresses! I'm a plus size woman and I'm really self conscious about my weight. The dress from the centered zipper tutorial would you suggest that for hiding hips and a tummy? And how do i make my arms look smaller what suggestions do you have for full figured women? My weight got out of control during the pandemic so I'm trying to embrace it until I can get to a comfortable weight again.

Thank you💖🌈

First of all, I would like to say your tutorial is truly the best I have seen on YouTube. I was feeling somewhat comfortable about doing this skirt up until the waistband. I wish people on YouTube would stop making markers on the fabrics without showing us. I haven’t sewn in a LONG time, and I am getting older and I want to get back into sewing. So, somethings I need to see how people mark their fabrics and explain it while they are doing it. Some of us are visual learners. But, you are a wonderful teacher and I enjoy your tutorials. I ABSOLUTELY appreciate the time and the effort you take to help others. Thank you so much, you are a beautiful gem!😊

You will see me rocking this with pockets lol I need pockets in my life

[susancheer]

Oh gosh, how I remember making these in my younger days, paired with an off the shoulder top and long dangly earrings. I just don't think this 60 something post meno body would do it justice these days. Love the way you teach and cover every little detail.

Great job!! Just an fyi, if you open out your facing when putting in your zipper and have the top stop at the waist seam line fold down the zipper tape and stitch zipper in. Then you can fold the waist facing down over the zipper and stitch down. Gives you a zipper sandwiched under inside facing much neater. But great job anyway. PS I’ve been sewing for more than 60 years. Keep practicing!!

Just finished a skirt using this tutorial!! I've wanted to make a skirt like this for a while and this was super helpful!! I hope to see a tutorial for one of your glorious maxi dresses soon!!!

[ketiaperkinsformallydavis]

I'm going to try this technique! Can you do a video on how to do a bodice to a dress like a maxi dress.

[smallfootprint]

I have made a few skirts in my day, but you show details that give it a more professional look. Thanks for being so thorough.

[lindsaykufahl]

This is a great video and I’m going to try it. I’m 5’0” and want to make a few skirts so they are long and flowing. Do you have directions on how to make this longer than the fabric width? I will now be looking for wider fabric. ❤

[mscashwell]

Sis, you are herlarious! Yes, herlarious. "...4 sq ft or space and always losing something..."

[kaylaqnln]

I started following you when I was looking for mask patterns that were simple to make. I had NO idea you were anything other than a youtube content creator. I just saw you on Manifest and it blew my mind. I love how down to earth you and Rob are!!

Happy 4th of July Marcy & Rob. I enjoy your teaching so much Marcy ! Thank you for creating and posting, you make your projects look so easy and fun.
