Default Please help with a skirt
Old 04-13-2008, 06:02 PM   #1 (permalink)

I'm not very good at sewing let alone try to make a skirt with a zipper. So, I was wondering...how hard, if at all possible, would it be to change the waist to a pull on instead of adding the zipper?? It's just a regular type a-line skirt. Nothing fancy.
Sure would appreciate the help.
Thanx,
Debi

:angel:Not hard at all. Just run your seam all the way up instead of stopping for the zipper.
make sure you have enough at the waistband for youe elastic to run through. That's all there is to it
