| wide satin ribbon for the waist elastic casing |
I folded wide white satin ribbon in half, lengthwise, I cut it the width of the waist, plus seam allowance, and top stiched it at the border, encasing about 1,5cm of the skirt's waist in between.
+ A quick and easy way to make an elastic casing.
- Using this method, there's a risk of the sewing machine not catching the back half of the ribbon, especially if you top stitch near the border. But it didn't happen here, all fabrics are thin and stiff.
THE CUNNING PLAN
Thread the upcycled leggings elastic inside the casing.
Make a scalloped embroidered hem.
